Israeli Occupation military claimed on Saturday the successful assassination of Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of Hezbollah.

 

This came after the 'Israeli' army targeted Nasrallah earlier Friday in an airstrike on the Hezbollah command center located underground beneath a residential building in the southern suburb of Beirut.

 

In its statement, the military also confirmed the assassination of Ali Korki, the commander of Hezbollah's southern front, along with several other Hezbollah leaders.

 

'Israeli' army claimed, "Our fighter jets executed the strike based on precise intelligence from the intelligence and security establishment while Hezbollah's leadership was inside the facility coordinating activities against settlers."

 

- Comments from Hezbollah -

 

Since Friday's strike on Hezbollah's headquaters, the group issued two statements, on Friday night and on Saturday morning. None of which contained any mention of Hassan Nasrallah or his fate following the attack.

 

The statements merely focused on the group's targeting several areas inside the Israeli Occupation with rockets.

 

This claim marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict and could have profound implications for the region.

 

Further details are awaited as the situation develops.
