Lebanese state media said an Israeli strike on a car in the country’s south killed two people on Tuesday, with a source close to Iran-backed Hezbollah saying a field commander was among the dead, AFP reports.

“The enemy drone strike that targeted a car on the Tyre-Al-Hush main road martyred two people,” the official National News Agency said, also reporting that ambulances had headed towards the site of the strike.

A source close to Hezbollah told AFP that a field commander had been killed in the strike, without identifying who.

The group said in a statement that one of its fighters, Hussein Makki, was “martyred on the road to Jerusalem”, the phrase it uses to refer to members killed in Israeli fire.

According to several Lebanese news outlets, Makki was a Hezbollah field commander and was killed in an Israeli strike on a car in southern Lebanon on Tuesday night.
