Beirut: Israel has claimed to have killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah with its fiery missiles. According to the Israeli army, Hezbollah chief Nasrallah has been killed in the attacks on Friday and today. Let us tell you that after carrying out a large scale attack on Hezbollah's headquarters a day before, deadly attacks were carried out targeting its chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Friday and today. Hassan Nasrallah has been killed in this fierce air strike. According to the IDF, Nasrallah was killed by the army in Friday's attack itself. But this has been confirmed today.
Although there was no immediate confirmation of Nasrallah's fate after the fierce attacks by the Israeli army on Lebanon, a source close to Hezbollah had told Reuters that he (Hassan Nasrallah) is no more. After this, the IDF has also claimed the death of Hassan Nasrallah. Let us tell you that Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Iran-backed terrorist group for the last 32 years, was fighting a war with Israel for 1 year against the attack on Hamas. But now he himself has lost his life. Earlier, the Israeli army also killed Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh immediately after the swearing-in ceremony of Iran's new President Masoud Pezeshkian.
The apprehension had increased when Netanyahu returned leaving his US tour midway
The possibility of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah being killed had increased when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returned to his country on Friday, leaving his US tour midway. Whereas he was scheduled to return from America tonight. After the killing of the Hezbollah chief, the IDF tweeted that Nasrallah will no longer be able to terrorize the world. At the same time, the Israeli Foreign Ministry wrote that Hassan Nasrallah was killed.
The Israeli army had intensified the attack since Friday
The Israeli army has been attacking Beirut since Friday. Reuters journalists say they saw more than 20 airstrikes in Beirut before dawn on Saturday and heard even more after sunrise. Smoke could be seen rising above the southern suburbs of the Hezbollah-controlled city known as Dahiyah. While thousands of people have fled the area since the Israeli attack on Friday and have gathered in squares, parks, sidewalks and seaside areas of Beirut city.
Beirut's Dahiyah was shaken
The town of Dahiyah has been rocked by a barrage of incendiary missiles that rained down on Beirut in the early hours of this morning. "They want to destroy Dahiyah and all of us," said Sari, a 30-year-old local resident, describing the early morning attack as "terrifying". Sari had left the area after Israeli warnings. Newly displaced people near Beirut were laying mats on the ground to try to sleep in Martyrs' Square. Following these attacks, Hezbollah also retaliated with rockets and missiles on Israel. The Israeli army said a missile fired at central Israel on Saturday fell in an open area. Earlier, the army had said that about 10 projectiles from Lebanon had entered Israeli territory and some of them were intercepted.
Rapid attacks on Hezbollah positions
The Israeli army said it was attacking Hezbollah positions in the Bekaa Valley, a region of eastern Lebanon on the Syrian border where it launched an attack last week. Lebanon was rocked by a five-hour Israeli attack on Beirut early Friday, the most powerful attack on Lebanon since the conflict with Hezbollah began. Claims that the Hezbollah chief was killed in this deadly attack have increased tensions between the two sides, raising fears that the conflict could spiral out of control. Possibly, Hezbollah's main supporter Iran and Israel's supporter the United States could also be drawn into the war. (
