Since Tuesday afternoon, at least 38 Hezbollah members have been reported killed, marking the deadliest period for the group since the Israel-Hamas war began on October 7. The Iran-backed militants have not disclosed specific details regarding the circumstances of these deaths, including whether they were a result of communication device explosions or battlefield encounters.
Lebanon's health ministry confirmed five battlefield deaths unrelated to the wireless device attacks, typically indicating the loss of Hezbollah fighters. This suggests that a total of 33 Hezbollah members may have been killed in the attacks targeting wireless devices.
