The exchange, captured in an audio recording between Bar and IAF pilot Lt. Col. S, was published by the IDF on Saturday evening.
Witnesses told Reuters that after Israel struck the Lebanese capital, a blast was heard, and a plume of smoke could be seen.
Safa "was seriously injured and is in critical condition," the sources claimed.
The political leadership faces several dilemmas regarding the nature of the IDF's response on Iranian soil. What sort of targets might it choose to strike?
The IDF stated that these soldiers destroyed weapons and terrorist infrastructure and eliminated terrorists both in combat and with assistance from the Israel Air Force.
The soldiers will be accompanied by the Israel Air Force and the 282nd Artillery Brigade.
Israeli Air Force deserves thanks for operations on multiple fronts, including strikes against Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis, amid ongoing regional conflicts.
While Netanyahu’s UN speech seemed inconsequential, the massive IDF strike on Hezbollah that followed may be a game changer in Israel’s battle against Iranian proxies.
"The operation was long-planned and reflects extraordinary collaboration with military intelligence and the Air Force,” Brig.-Gen. Levine stated.
The IAF will stop any arms transfers from Iran to Hezbollah and is ready to assist troops in any ground operations.
