Jerusalem, Oct 30 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement on Wednesday that its Air Forces killed Mustafa Ahmad Shahadi, Deputy Commander of Hezbollah's elite Radwan Forces, in the Lebanese city of Nabatieh.

The IDF noted that Shahadi, who was targetted based on intelligence, "advanced numerous terror attacks against Israel," Xinhua news agency reported.
