In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the IDF said it killed senior Hezbollah commander Ali Musa Daqduq in a precision strike in southern Lebanon. Daqduq held senior positions within Hezbollah, including as bodyguard to Nasrallah, head of the infantry unit, and founding commander of the "Golan Terrorist Network," which the IDF says was exposed in 2019 and linked to Hezbollah's operations near the Israeli-Lebanese border and in Syria. He was involved in orchestrating operations against IDF soldiers and the State of Israel, and was linked to the kidnapping and murder of five US soldiers in 2007. Daqduq joined Hezbollah in 1983. Separately, two IDF soldiers were wounded by Hezbollah rockets at the Ali Taher Ridge; one lightly wounded and the other moderately wounded; they received medical treatment in the field and were evacuated to a hospital. Both soldiers serve in the IDF's 7th Armored Brigade's 77th Battalion, part of the 36th Division. This is a developing story.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, US President Donald Trump confirmed that a peace deal between the United States and Iran has been completed, posting that the deal is complete and congratulating all, and stating that he fully authorizes the toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz and the immediate removal of the US naval blockade. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on X that both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, with an official signing ceremony expected in Switzerland on June 19. Mediators named include Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey.
In Uplifting News, Iran's national soccer squad received a warm send-off from fans in Tijuana, Mexico. Supporters waved Iranian flags and chanted “Team Melli” as the players left their Tijuana base camp for their World Cup opener against New Zealand in Los Angeles. Fans stood five-deep along the sidewalk outside the hotel, where staff in red Iran shirts handed out small flags and the players waved to the crowd. A sign read "Iran, you will never walk alone. Mexico stands with you." Iran's federation president Mehdi Taj stood outside the hotel as the players departed.
