Israel Defence Force said Izadi was 'one of the architects' of the horror in which 1,200 died and 250 were kidnapped 'and among the few who knew of it prior to its execution.'
It added: 'Izadi was eliminated in a safe house in the heart of Iran, following a prolonged intelligence effort.'
Izadi was said to be a top money man in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps who sent state cash Palestinian terror organizations in Gaza and the West Bank.
The Israeli military later said that it killed another commander of the Guards' overseas arm identified as Benham Shariyari, during a strike on his vehicle in western Tehran.
Shariyary was said to be "was responsible for all weapons transfers from the Iranian regime to its proxies across the Middle East".
The ongoing cull of top Iranian commanders - and their replacements - gathered pace along with another assassination of a top nuclear boffins.
IDF officials refused to identify the scientist said to play a vital role in the rogue Islamist regime's plans to build an atom bomb.
He was killed by a missile fired from a drone after being moved to a 'safe house' - which Israeli intelligence located overnight.
His death is the 11th assassination of a nuclear scientist in the past nine days in a special Israeli manhunt dubbed Operation Narnia.
Iran launched more missiles overnight which were intercepted amid reports of minimal damage - as Israel intensified its war on terror targets across Iran.
Meanwhile, Israel hit "two centrifuge production sites" at Iran's Isfahan nuclear facility overnight.
A military official revealed to reporters on the condition of anonymity: "Isfahan we targeted in the first 24 hours of our operation, but we carried out a second wave of strikes there overnight, deepening our achievements and advancing the damage to the facility."
He added that the targeting of two centrifuge production sites in Isfahan was "in addition to a couple more centrifuge production sites that we have been able to strike successfully in recent days".
The relentless raids by the Israeli air force have "dealt a severe blow to Iran's centrifuge production capabilities," the official said.
Centrifuges are used to enrich uranium, both for civilian and military use.
