The Israel Defense Forces confirmed Tuesday that their airstrikes in Lebanon eliminated Fuad Shukr, the Hezbollah commander who ordered a drone attack on a soccer field in the Israel-controlled Golan Heights that killed 12 victims, mostly children.
The deceased terrorist also had a connection to the horrific 1983 bombing that killed 241 of our military personnel:
Shukr, who was also known as Hajj Mohsin, joined Hezbollah in 1985. He was also sought by the U.S. government over his connection to the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, which targeted U.S. Marines.

The IDF posted the news on social media:
