In drone footage shared by the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF), the killing of Muhammad Hussein Srour, a senior commander in Hezbollah, is captured as multiple explosions rock a residential building in the Southern Suburb of Beirut. Srour was known for leading Hezbollah's aerial command and was reportedly responsible for orchestrating drone and explosive attacks against Israeli targets. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the killing of Srour, stating that he authorised the strike while he was in flight. The airstrike that killed Srour is part of a broader escalation in hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah since the onset of the conflict following the October 7 attack by Hamas.
