In a statement, the IDF says that alongside Nasrallah, the commander of Hezbollah’s Southern Front, Ali Karaki, was also killed, along with other commanders, APA reports citing Times of Israel.

Nasrallah was targeted while at Hezbollah’s main headquarters in the southern suburbs of Beirut, a Hezbollah stronghold known as the Dahiyeh.

The headquarters is underground, beneath residential buildings in the Dahiyeh, the IDF says.

“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 military says.
