“Israeli” War Minister Yoav Galant claimed Monday that half of Hezbollah’s commanders in south Lebanon have been eliminated by the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).

“Half of the Hezbollah commanders in south Lebanon have been eliminated… and the other half hide and abandon south Lebanon to IDF operations,” Gallant said in remarks made following a visit to IOF’s northern command.

In the video statement, Gallant added that the IOF is conducting “offensive actions” across south Lebanon with no mention if ground troops had crossed the border.

The IOF’s main priority in the north is to bring back the tens of thousands of “Israelis” to their homes after they were displaced following Hezbollah’s and the IOF’s skirmishes which have been ongoing since Oct. 8, 2032.
