History

In 1999, during the South Lebanon conflict a clash broke out between Israel Defense Forces troops and Hezbollah fighters in Wadi Saluki in which two IDF soldiers and three Hezbollah fighters were killed in the fighting. Hezbollah announced that the incident was revenge for the assassination of their commander Ali Hassan Deeb.[1]

On 2 November 2023, four Hezbollah members were killed in Wadi Saluki during a shelling by Israeli soldiers.[2]
