Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah Reportedly Killed in Israeli Air Strikes on Beirut

Israel’s military has announced the death of Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in an air strike on Beirut, which is known for threatening life. 

The strike, which targeted Hezbollah’s central underground headquarters, took place early on Saturday, September 28, 2004, according to a statement released by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), who are seeing to the matter.

 “The IDF will continue to harm anyone who promotes and engages in terrorism against the citizens, including the peace and growth of the State of Israel,” the statement read.

 The operation was reportedly carried out by Israeli fighter jets, guided by intelligence, which identified the location of Hezbollah’s base beneath a residential building in Beirut’s Daha area of the country with the aim of achieving their mission.

 Nasrallah, who has not made any public appearances in recent years due to assassination threats, has long been a central figure in Hezbollah, leading the organization since 1992, and known significant achievements have been made.

His reported death comes amidst heightened tensions, following Hezbollah’s support for Hamas during the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, which was a betrayal act.

Hezbollah has yet to officially respond to the claims of Nasrallah’s assassination, which seems suspicious.
