“Hassan Nasrallah he will no longer be able to terrorize the world.” We can read it on the profile of X of the Israeli Defense Forces, who officially announce the killing of the leader of Hezbollah during the raids on Beirut.
The news is obviously being updated. However, it has been since yesterday evening, after the green light from Netanyahu to the attack on Lebanon, amidst rumors of his death. The bombs in Tel Aviv, after all, had razed Hezbollah’s headquarters to the ground and Lebanese sources confirmed that contact with the Shiite leader had been lost. “It’s hard to believe that Nasrallah is alive,” whispered Israeli officials who were trying to verify whether the mission had achieved its objective. Apparently, yes.
The IDF this morning claimed to have carried out a precise air strike just at the moment when some leaders of the Party of God were in the headquarters of Dahiyeh, south of Beirut. Together with Nasrallah they also died Wings Karkicommander of Hezbollah’s southern front, and other Hezbollah Commanders. “Following precise information from the IDF and the Israeli security establishment – reads the official statement – the IAF fighter planes conducted a targeted attack against the central headquarters of the terrorist organization Hezbollahwhich was located under a residential building in the Dahieh area of Beirut. The attack was conducted while the top brass of Hezbollah’s chain of command operated from its headquarters and carried out terrorist activities against citizens of the State of Israel.”
The IDF created a video illustration to show how and where the bombings in Beirut occurred.
Below is the graphic, released by the IDF, which shows how Hezbollah’s entire chain of command has been eliminated.
Meanwhile, Lebanon is dealing with the effects of the Israeli raid. The Lebanese Ministry of Health said that 6 people were killed and 91 injured in Friday’s attacks. Six apartment buildings would have been demolished. Hundreds of people moved into the mountains above the capital carrying children and belongings from their homes. According to the Ministry of Health, at least 720 people were killed in Lebanon during the week.
What will happen now remains to be seen. The IDF has mobilized reserve soldiers and activated three battalions, as well as sending two brigades to Northern Israel to prepare for a possible ground invasion. Hezbollah responds with rocket launches, Israel with attacks in southern Beirut and the Bekaa valley.
