The Radwan Force, led by Ibrahim Aqil, suffered a major setback as Aqil was reportedly killed in an IDF airstrike in Beirut. This strike targeted a meeting in the Hezbollah stronghold in southern Lebanon, dealing a significant blow to the group’s leadership.
The Radwan Force, named after Imad Mughniyeh, plays a crucial role in Hezbollah’s military operations. Trained for offensive maneuvers, the elite unit focuses on ground warfare and special operations against Israel. With advanced weaponry and rigorous training, the force poses a significant threat to Israel.
Despite the loss of Aqil, the Radwan Force remains a key player in Hezbollah’s military doctrine, emphasizing asymmetric warfare against Israel. The force’s expansion into Syria raises concerns for Israel’s security, highlighting the ongoing conflict between the two sides.
