The strikes came after Israel carried out an unprecedented strike against Hezbollah on Tuesday and Wednesday, detonating thousands of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-details-emerge-on-how-israel-struck-4000-hezbollah-terrorists-in-mass-pager-bombing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pagers</a> and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/israel-detonates-thousands-of-hezbollah-walkie-talkies-in-2nd-strike-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">walkie talkies</a> that Israel&#8217;s intelligence services had secretly built through legitimate manufacturing companies that it created as part of a plan that was <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/International/israel-hand-manufacturing-pagers-exploded-lebanon-source/story?id=113851347" target="_blank" rel="noopener">at least 15 years</a> in the making.

The detonation of the devices was enormously successful for Israel, thousands of Hezbollah terrorists were injured, with many sustaining severe injuries that will keep them off the battlefield forever, like missing limbs and blindness. Hundreds more were critically injured and dozens were killed. The attack also outed numerous terrorists to their communities who may not have known that they were part of the organization.
Other benefits of the attack included its minimal collateral damage, the decimation of Hezbollah&#8217;s ability to communicate, and inducing a state of fear and paranoia within the organization.
Israel also decimated Hezbollah&#8217;s elite Radwan force on Friday, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/israel-eliminates-entire-senior-command-of-hezbollahs-radwan-force-in-airstrike-report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">killing</a> its entire senior command in an airstrike.

The IDF noted that Hezbollah’s military top chain of command has been nearly entirely eliminated following the airstrikes yesterday.

Hezbollah’s military chain of command has been almost completely dismantled after a dozen significant terrorists including Ibrahim Aqil were eliminated yesterday.

Among those killed in Israel’s airstrike was Ibrahim Aqil, the Head of Hezbollah’s Operations Unit and the Commander of Hezbollah’s Radwan Forces, who was also in charge of Hezbollah’s “Conquer the Galilee” attack plan, the IDF said in a statement.
“Aqil and the Radwan commanders who were eliminated today were planning Hezbollah’s ‘Conquer the Galilee’ attack plan, in which Hezbollah intended to infiltrate Israeli communities and murder innocent civilians,” the statement said.
Aqil is one of the founders of the terrorist group and had a $7 million bounty on his head from the U.S. government over his role in the 1983 bombings of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, which killed 63 people, and the U.S. Marine Corps barracks, which killed 241 U.S. personnel.
The Radwan Force is the unit that is reportedly primarily responsible for Hezbollah’s terrorist operations against Israel, with one of its top goals being the conquering of the northern Israeli region of Galilee, The New York Times reported.
“The Radwan Force is dedicated to duplicating what happened on Oct. 7 in the south of Israel in the north,” said Tamir Hayman, a retired general who led Israeli military intelligence until 2021. “For that exact reason, it’s unacceptable for Israel to allow its fighters to remain in the border area.”
