Eliminated: A Key Operative in Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Unit

The IAF operated in the area of Baalbek to strike and eliminate the terrorist Meitham Mustafa Altaar, a key operative in Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Unit. Meitham led many of the unit's activities and took part in the planning and carrying out of numerous terror attacks against the State of Israel. Meitham also flew to Iran multiple times, where he gained knowledge and assisted in building up the Hezbollah terrorist organization’s force and arsenal of Iranian weapons.

His elimination significantly harms the capabilities of Hezbollah's Aerial Defense Unit.
