Breaking: Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah killed in Beirut strike, Israeli military says | DW News

Israel's military says Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has been killed in an airstrike on Beirut. Israel struck Hezbollah's headquarters in the city late on Friday, with reports indicating they were targeting the head of Hezbollah. The Lebanese militant group, which usually confirms significant deaths among its ranks on the same day, has yet to comment on Nasrallah's fate.

Nasrallah is in middle of meeting with 72 vergins and he forgot his pager 📟

He died when he sent 8, 000 ROCKETS into Israel! "I will BLESS those who bless THEE and CURSE those who curse THEE" - GOD'S PROMISE to Abraham, Genesis 3

If he indeed was killed it proves that there was command bunker built UNDER civilian appartment block. Who does such thing?

[frankikea]

Israel never misses their targets irrespective of distance. Truly, the long srm of Israel is longer than imagined. Israel has the right to defend themselves and the good people of the world stand with Israel. No room for terrorists.

Real intelligence vs caveman intelligence

People walk out from Netanyahu's UN address and then this happens.

Sad day for sinwar..all his friends are dead and he is alone in a tunnel 😢

[untubus]

I wonder about all this talk of "escalation".
Hezbollah and Hamas shot at Israel, declared war over and over again. That until now Hezbollah didn't send ALL their rockets towards Israel doesn't mean Hezbollah didn't escalate, they just waited for a better opportunity - which Israel took.
Saying Israel escalated is just hypocrisy.

This is very sad. I'm pretty sure there were small and medium-sized animals living in that beard.

[inoovator]

He got to meet Allah and his 72 hooris

Nasrallah :'I was promised 72 virgins, not a 72 years old virgin ! '

[edjeep]

dont mess with Netenyahu... he is the Clint Eastwood of the Middle East!

[AhmedArjan-dm]

To all free Syrians oppressed by Iran and its militias, you have the right to be happy today.
