Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced that the IDF has eliminated half of Hezbollah’s brigade-level commanders in southern Lebanon. This comes after the IDF reported killing six brigade-level and over 30 battalion-level commanders recently. Hezbollah, with an estimated force of 50,000-100,000, has a similar command structure to Hamas, which has five brigade commanders for a force of 35,000-40,000. The IDF’s elimination of a significant number of senior commanders, along with dozens of junior commanders, indicates substantial progress in weakening Hezbollah’s leadership.
