Israel’s military says it has killed a Hezbollah profiler in an airstrike in southwestern Syria.
Israel’s air force “attacked and eliminated” Adham Jahout, whom it describes in a statement as a terrorist within the Lebanese Shia militia Hezbollah’s terrorist cell in Syria.
Furthermore, Jahout is described as an intermediary who “passed information from the Syrian regime” to Iran-backed Hezbollah.
Israeli authorities do not usually comment on individual attacks in Syria, but have repeatedly said they will not allow Iran to expand its presence in the region.
Hezbollah has historically relied on ally Syria to transport weapons and other equipment from its main backer Iran.
The announcement of the strike comes hours after Israel’s military chief, Herzi Halevi, vowed to continue hitting Hezbollah and that attacks would continue “without respite” to prevent the group from recovering.

INIsrael’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Wednesday that Israel’s expected response to Iran’s attack last week will be deadly, precise and surprising.
“They will not understand what happened or how it happened,” said a statement from his office.
According to a report in The Wall Street Journal, Israel has so far refused to share its Iran plans with the United States. Nor was the US informed in advance of Israel’s attack on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut – and the relationship between Biden and Netanyahu is said to be increasingly frosty.
The newspaper’s sources express frustration that Washington is “time and again taken to bed” by Israel’s advances in the Middle East.

– Initial information is that it is some kind of battery for an electric scooter that has exploded. So we don’t suspect any crime at the moment, but that could of course change, says Gabriel Henning, press spokesperson at the police.
A fire broke out in connection with the explosion, which should now be extinguished. There are shards of glass at the scene.
One person has gotten out of the apartment, he is supposed to be awake and talkative, but otherwise the state of the damage is unclear. He can go with the ambulance for a check-up.
The police have cordoned off the scene and are assisting the emergency services.
A report will be written about a fire without suspicion of crime.
