01 · THE DISPATCH

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu personally announced tonight (Monday, 21:22 Jerusalem) that the IDF eliminated four terrorists approaching Israeli troops on motorcycles in southern Lebanon. The Prime Minister said the operatives were eliminated as they closed in on forces, and stressed that Israel acts to maintain freedom of operation in the area.

The announcement, posted on his official channel, follows a string of targeted eliminations in southern Lebanon. As The Zioneer reported at 16:57 today, the IDF confirmed a separate elimination of a militant traveling in a vehicle in southern Lebanon—bringing at least five enemy operatives killed today in the southern sector alone. Over the past two weeks, the IDF said it eliminated more than 20 terrorists operating against troops south of the Litani River. The identity of the four operatives—whether Hezbollah or other affiliated fighters—has not yet been specified by the military.
