The IDF attacked with aircraft and eliminated earlier today (Wednesday) the terrorist Hussein Nazia Barji, in the Tyre region in southern Lebanon.
Barji served as a central knowledge center in the field of weapons production in Lebanon, which operated within the framework of the Research, Development and Production Directorate of the terrorist organization Hezbollah.
The directorate is responsible for the development, production and maintenance of weapons, and also works to expand the organization’s supply capabilities. Since its establishment, it has managed many projects for the production of weapons in the field, including the production of precision missiles.
The terrorist Hussein Nazia Barji served as an engineer with extensive experience in the unit, and was responsible for establishing infrastructure for the production of precision surface-to-surface missiles. His elimination was intended to harm Hezbollah’s reconstruction efforts after Operation “Northern Arrows.” Barji’s activities were a blatant violation of the understanding between Israel and Lebanon.
