Several other terrorists from the Radwan forces who were operating in the buildings were also killed in the attack.
Policy experts explain the looming threat of Hezbollah, from their elite Radwan forces, support from Iran, and arsenal of precision weapons.
According to the IDF, Hassin, a senior operative of the Lebanon-based terror organization, held a rank equivalent to that of a brigade commander.
As part of those attacks, the IDF has killed over 300 Hezbollah terrorists as well as injured over 750, with nearly all of the terror group's border lookout posts destroyed.
The IDF received intelligence suggesting that Hezbollah forces were partially moved due to the high number of casualties suffered by the Lebanese terror organization.
