Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that it has eliminated another Hezbollah member Mahmoud Yusef Anisi, a senior terrorist involved in Hezbollah’s precision-guided missile manufacturing chain in Lebanon.

IDF said, “Anisi joined Hezbollah over 15 years ago and was one of the leaders of the Hezbollah PGM campaign in Lebanon. He was a significant source of knowledge with many technological abilities in the field of weapons manufacturing.”

IDF further asserted that it will continue operating against the threat of Hezbollah.

This development comes after Iran’s missile attack on Israel. Earlier, Hezbollah Chief Hassan Nasrallah was killed by IDF in its air strike in Beirut. The tensions between Israel and Hezbollah have escalated in last few weeks.

IDF has also informed that after more than a decade in captivity in Gaza, a 21-year-old Yazidi woman held by a Hamas terrorist affiliated with ISIS was rescued and returned to her family in Iraq.

In its X handle, IDF wrote, “In an operation coordinated by the IDF and led by @cogatonline USEmbassyJLM and other international actors, Fawzia Amin Sido was freed from captivity and returned home to Iraq. 

At 11-years-old, Fawzia was trafficked by ISIS to a Hamas terrorist in Gaza, who was presumably killed during IDF strikes. She fled to a hideout in which she was rescued in a secret mission through the Kerem Shalom Crossing.  This is further proof of the connection between Hamas and ISIS, as well as the crimes against humanity committed by the terrorist organization in Gaza.

We will continue to act to dismantle the Hamas-ISIS terrorist organization and free all hostages in Hamas captivity.
