The IDF statement reads, "As part of his role, Muhammad planned and promoted rocket and missile launches toward Israeli territory from the areas of Lebanon's central and western regions." 

Earlier, the IDF, in a separate statement, announced the death of Ismail Youssef Bazz, identified as "the commander of Hezbollah's coastal sector, in the area of Ain Ebel in Lebanon," in its airstrike in southern Lebanon, according to CNN.
