"Shortly after the strike had been carried out, Hezbollah sources announced the death of Badia’ Hamiyah, one of its field commanders in Syria, without acknowledging how he had been killed. This led some to draw a connection between his death and the IAF raid. Hezbollah’s Al-Mayadeen, however, denied Hamiyah was killed in the strike, claiming he was killed in Quneitra near the Israeli-Syrian border. Though, if the Hezbollah sources claims are true, it raises questions as to the presence of the group’s fighters on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights – particularly after recent claims by Hezbollah that it had finished preparing the Golan as a front in a future war against Israel.

Not likely. There was someone or something there that required action - and that had to be high level something. One of the past IDF actions was actually taken from Lebanon airspace - and bomb sent over to Syria without leaving that airspace - and hit Hez ADA new items. This --- was different - they flew in and so did it despite of the reactions.
