Yesterday (Wednesday), Israeli Air Force fighter jets successfully eliminated Mustafa Ahmad Shahadi, the deputy commander of Hezbollah’s Radwan Force, in a precise operation in Nabatieh, Lebanon. The airstrike was executed with the combined intelligence guidance of Military Intelligence, the Air Force, and the Northern Command.
Mustafa Ahmad Shahadi was a key figure in the Radwan Force, Hezbollah’s elite unit, and was responsible for advancing terror activities against Israel, including involvement in plans to infiltrate the Galilee. Between 2012 and 2017, during the Syrian civil war, Shahadi served as the Radwan Force’s operations officer. Later, he managed the unit’s operations in southern Lebanon, a strategically important region for the terrorist organization.
Shahadi’s elimination represents a significant blow to the operational capabilities of Hezbollah and the Radwan Force, impairing their ability to plan and carry out terrorist activities against IDF forces and the Israeli civilian front on the northern border. The successful strike highlights the IDF’s precise intelligence and operational capabilities in thwarting terrorist threats.
