Israel Kills Islamic Jihad Commander in Baalbek Airstrike

💥 BAALBEK — Israel just reached deep into the Bekaa, and the target wasn't Hezbollah. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Baalbek is Hezbollah's strategic heartland — striking Islamic Jihad there signals Israel is widening its Lebanon target set beyond the south. PIJ operates under Iranian command, not Lebanese political cover. Killing a PIJ commander in Bekaa pulls Iran's proxy network directly into the Lebanon escalation, days before Tuesday's NSC war decision.
