IDF Assassinates Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah

The IDF assassinates the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah. For 32 of Hezbollah’s 40 years in the organization, he led the group’s transformation from a band of guerillas into a disciplined to highly equipped fighting force. Hezbollah focused on Israel’s destruction. The assassination of Nasrallah is a major coup for Israel, as it goes a long way in restoring Israeli deterrence and Israeli prestige since the erosion of both on October 7. His killing along with a dozen other Hezbollah commanders severely dented, the organization’s command and control, but those killings did not stop Hezbollah attacks against the Israeli population.
