By Anadolu staff

One more Hezbollah fighter was killed in clashes with the Israeli army, the Lebanon-based group announced on Friday.

The group identified the fighter as Abbas Hussein Hammoud.

The new fatality brings the total number of Hezbollah fighters killed in combat with Israeli forces since Oct. 8 to 379, according to an Anadolu tally.

Fears have grown about a full-blown war between Israel and the Lebanese resistance group amid an exchange of cross-border attacks between the two sides.

The escalation comes against the backdrop of a deadly Israeli onslaught on Gaza, which has killed nearly 39,200 victims since October, following an attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas.
