The Israeli army announced that it had assassinated a high-ranking official from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. He explained that the target was working within Hezbollah’s missile system in Lebanon, stressing that this strike targeted a central figure in military coordination between Tehran and Hezbollah.
In a statement published by Israeli media, the Israeli army stated that it carried out a raid earlier this week that resulted in the killing of “Abu Dharr Mohammadi,” a leader in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard who was working within Hezbollah’s missile unit in Beirut.
According to the statement, “Mohammadi” was considered a key figure in the military coordination between Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, as he played a prominent role in linking the party’s leadership with senior Iranian officials, in addition to his contribution to managing military cooperation between the two parties.
The Israeli army indicated that “Mohammadi” was also an important figure in developing Hezbollah’s military capabilities in the field of missiles, and participated in rebuilding these capabilities after Operation “Shares of the North,” an operation during which Israel targeted military structures affiliated with the party in Lebanon.
The statement stated that “Mohammadi” had extensive knowledge of Hezbollah’s strategic means of combat, and played a role in leading the activities of the missile system within the organization. He also participated in directing missile launches towards Israel during previous military operations, including the “Arrows of the North” and “Lion’s Roar” operations.
The Israeli army believes that the presence of “Mohammadi” inside Lebanon reflects the depth of military coordination between the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Hezbollah, especially in the field of developing missile capabilities and managing combat operations.
The statement confirmed that the Israeli army will continue to carry out military operations against Hezbollah, accusing the party of engaging in the current confrontation with the support of Iran.
The statement concluded by emphasizing that the army “will continue to act forcefully against Hezbollah and will not allow civilians inside Israel to be threatened or targeted.”
