Hezbollah’s Leader, in a Major Development in the Mideast War, Is Apparently Killed in Israeli Strike at Beirut
In a major development in the Middle East war, reports are increasing that the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in an Israeli strike Friday afternoon at the organization’s Beirut headquarters — a development that, if confirmed, could have a major impact on the war.
The Israeli air force used bunker-busting bombs to obliterate the deeply dug construction at the Dahiyeh district of the Lebanese capital shortly after Prime Minister Netanyahu completed a speech at the United Nations. Hebrew-language press reports this evening were citing security and military officials who expressed confidence that Nasrallah, as well as his closest confidante, Tsai a-Din, were at the bunker when the Israel Defense Force hit it.
