An Israeli drone strike on a vehicle on the outskirts of Tyre in southern Lebanon on Friday killed a senior Hezbollah official, according to Israeli and Arab media.
The IDF later confirmed the death of Ali Naeem in the strike.
The IDF said Naeem, a senior Hezbollah official, served as the deputy commander of the terror group's rockets and missiles unit.
"Ali was considered to be a significant source of knowledge in the terrorist organization, and leader in the field of rockets. He was also one of the leaders for heavy-warhead rocket fire and responsible for conducting and planning attacks against Israeli civilians," the IDF added.
