Hezbollah Confirms Hassan Nasrallah Martyred in Israeli Attack
Beirut, Lebanon – In a devastating blow to the Lebanese Shia militant group, Hezbollah has confirmed the martyrdom of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in an Israeli missile attack.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claimed responsibility for the strike, stating that Nasrallah was targeted alongside other top Hezbollah commanders in Beirut.
“He will no longer terrorize the world,” the IDF said in a statement on X.
According to sources, the airstrikes targeted Hezbollah’s main headquarters, located beneath residential buildings in the Dahiya neighborhood. Four buildings were reduced to rubble, causing widespread destruction and chaos.
Hezbollah’s al-Manar TV reported that Israeli warplanes struck the area, shattering windows and shaking houses nearly 30 kilometers north of Beirut.
Ambulances rushed to the scene, sirens blaring, as emergency services scrambled to respond to the aftermath.
Regional Repercussions
The martyrdom of Nasrallah, a key figure in the Middle East conflict, is expected to escalate tensions between Israel and Hezbollah.

Nasrallah’s Legacy

Nasrallah founded Hezbollah in the 1980s, shaping the group into a powerful force in Lebanese politics and regional conflicts.
