Hezbollah announced the death of its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a meeting of Hezbollah officials in Beirut.

Nasrallah, a key figure in the Middle East for over three decades, had been on Israel’s kill list for many years due to his involvement in attacks on Israeli targets. His death marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, potentially triggering further violence in the region.

Israel described the airstrike as a precise operation aimed at Hezbollah’s leadership.

In the aftermath, Lebanese citizens fired guns in the air in mourning, expressing deep sorrow over Nasrallah’s death.
