Hezbollah Kills 8 IDF Soldiers In Lebanon, Iran Mocks Iron Dome, Khamenei Slams West & "Evil" Israel Eight Israeli soldiers were killed in combat with Hezbollah in south Lebanon, the Israeli military said in a statement on October 2. The soldiers were killed after crossing the border into Lebanon to target Hezbollah's positions, the Israeli Defense Forces said. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei made his first appearance on October 2 following strikes on Israel the night before. Khamenei made no mention of Iran’s missile strikes on Israel in retaliation for the killing of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah. However, he blamed Israeli “evil” and American and European presence in the Middle East as the root cause of the conflict.
