On Saturday, the Israeli army announced the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah following a significant attack on Lebanon.
IDF spokesperson Lt. Col. Nadav Shoshani confirmed that Nasrallah was targeted in an airstrike on Hezbollah’s headquarters in Beirut on Friday, which also resulted in the deaths of other high-ranking Hezbollah officials, including Ali Karki, the commander of the southern front.
The IDF described Nasrallah as a key decision-maker for Hezbollah and a serious threat to Israel. While the military could not confirm civilian casualties from the strike, officials noted that the operation was carefully planned.

Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid commended the military for the operation, calling it a major national security success. IDF Chief Herzi Halevi indicated that this strike is part of a broader strategy, with additional operations planned against those posing risks to Israeli citizens.
Israel’s military campaign against Hezbollah has intensified, leading to a significant increase in airstrikes in the region. Nasrallah, who had led Hezbollah for over thirty years, had turned the group into a formidable paramilitary force, greatly enhancing its missile and drone capabilities. The Israeli military holds Nasrallah responsible for numerous attacks on Israeli civilians and soldiers. Hassan Nasrallah
