According to reports, between six and eight people were killed in the strike, among them also Hezbollah field commanders. untar was released from Israeli prison in 2008, where he was serving a life sentence for the murders of the Haran family in Nahariya, as part of a deal with Hezbollah for the return of the bodies of two Israeli soldiers, Udi Goldwasser and Eldad Regev.
