The Israeli military on Saturday announced the death of Hezbollah's long-time leader Hassan Nasrallah (pictured) in airstrikes on Beirut on Friday evening.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the news, stating that Nasrallah "will no longer be able to terrorize the world." After the announcement, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi warned that Israel would take action against anyone who poses a threat to the country. "This is not the end of the tools in the toolbox," he said.
Other senior commanders were also reported dead as the strikes reportedly targeted Hezbollah's main headquarters in the Dahiyeh, the group's stronghold in southern Beirut. "The strike was carried out while the top brass of Hezbollah were at their headquarters and engaged in coordinating terror activities against the citizens of the State of Israel," the IDF said.
