The strike was reportedly conducted according to intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Directorate.

Ghazzawi planned and executed many attacks on Israel, including firing anti-tank missiles at Israeli citizens and soldiers operating in southern Lebanon

In a separate strike, the IAF struck Hezbollah infrastructure in Safad El Battikh in southern Lebanon, including buildings in which a Hezbollah Command Unit terrorist operated.
