Israel assassinated on May 23 a prominent commander of Hezbollah in southern Lebanon and the group responded by firing dozens of rockets.
In a statement, the IDF said that it killed Nasser Farran who was a “prominent” commander of Hezbollah responsible for the manufacturing and procurement of weapons.
Farran was killed in a drone strike in the town of Kafr Dajjal in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah confirmed his death, but did not provide information on his role. The same strike wounded three children who were aboard a mini bus that was passing nearby at the time.
The IDF alleged in its statement that Farran was heavily involved in “the production of Hezbollah’s strategic and unique weapons.”
Some of the facilities under Farran command were struck in recent months, the IDF said, noting that the assassination is part of ongoing operations to “cause a blow to the build-up of the Hezbollah terror organization with weapons designed to attack the Israeli home front.”
Following the assassination, Hezbollah said in two separate statements that its fighters fired dozens of Katyusha and Falaq rockets at a newly-established headquarters of the 91th Division in the settlement of Ayelet and another of the 769th Brigade in the settlement of Beit Hillel.
Hebrew media said that 30 rockets were fired from southern Lebanon in the first attack with the launcher being hit later by the IDF and at least five were fired in the second. No casualties were reported, only material losses.
In two other statements, Hezbollah announced that its fighters struck surveillance equipment of the IDF in the sites of Metula and al-Rahib using suitable weapons.
The four attacks were carried out in support of the Palestinian people and resistance in the Gaza Strip and as a response to the assassination in Kafr Dajjal, the group noted in its statements.
The clashes on the Lebanese-Israeli border first broke out after the start of the war in Gaza last October, with Hezbollah and its allies carrying out attacks in support of the Strip.
So far, the border clashes have resulted in ten civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of at least 14 IDF soldiers and reservists. On the Lebanese side, more than 400 people have been killed, including 292 fighters of Hezbollah and at least 70 civilians.

if israel thinks those murders will save it, it is dead wrong. nothing can stop the march of history, if you kill one resistance fighter, two more will rise up in his place, until palestine and the middle east are free from the genocidal colonial squatters.
god bless you
we are cool with killing more and more of you people, if you are ok with dying.
so, really don’t bother because us more killing you guys.
we are here for you <3 <3 <3
oh, and by the by… those look like hearts but actually are jewish dik & ballz.
enjoy you g@y mofos.
filthy butthurt zionazi pork is squealing and spends all day with his diaper head bunker poofs voting their garbage up. yaaaaaaaaawn. israhell is doooooooomed.
stop taking my clean and heavenly behind in your rotten filthy and sandy f0khole you call a mawl. you talking c0nt.
lol those “jewish dik” look pretty small. but congrats, must be the first time you’re honest about something 🤣🤣🤣
so, tell me… how many jew dikks did penetrate your mothers dog c0nt while you were still in its belly?
jahweh is the greatest and jesus christ is his only son. nobody will win against the god of jacob and soon the whole world will see it. how this ends? read first psalm 83 and then ezekiel 38 and 39 in the holy bible. understand that whole israel is efraim (west europeans) and juda (jews) together.
this time it’s the arabs knocking for you and a lot of fun will come with all of you.
that’s right!
how are they able to track the targets? been a fair few strikes against high grade commanders in lebanon and syria. i thought the us experience in afghanistan taught them its counterproductive to kill the top guys. you can profile the existing guys. the new guys that replace them tend to be younger more vigorous, radical and daring and less predictable. stupid.
it’s over stupidity . the muslims pray a lot, while the rest of mankind is developing advanced technology.
shemini atzeret, yom kippur…etc. where was the idf then? at prayer.
why can’t someone assassinate the vermin netanyahu who deserves an end the world will rejoice in!
allah got fucked
haha, word!
allah is th same god you dumb little faggots worship. have some respect
allah is a g@y s.o.b. you go worship your evil satanist dog-god, you freak.
the moshe’s wont be bombing their way out of this mess. just like the americans wont be ‘voting’ their way out of this mess.
the world cries out for more mountains of stacked zionazi pork and the end of the khazar squatters in palestine.
you say that just because you have a great big jewish dikk between any of your cheeks. faggot.
we are the champions, no time for losers, cuz we are the champions.. of the world.
