Intense bombardment continues between Israel and Hezbollah. The Israeli army is conducting fierce airstrikes on Hezbollah positions inside Lebanon. Meanwhile, Hezbollah is retaliating by firing rockets and missiles into Israeli territory. Amid this, in 'Operation New Order', the dangerous terrorist organization's chief Hassan Nasrallah has been eliminated by the IDF. The Israeli army announced this 24 hours later.
On Friday, the Israel Defense Forces received precise information that Hassan Nasrallah was located in Hezbollah's central headquarters under a building in the Dahiyah area of Lebanon. Israeli fighter jets took off immediately. They targeted the underground headquarters, destroying at least six buildings. Following this, the IDF announced that Nasrallah had been eliminated.
Before the death of Hezbollah chief Nasrallah, most of his top commanders had already fallen victim to Israeli attacks. Currently, only one commander remains, whom the Israeli army is searching for. With his elimination, Israel will win this battle. This commander is Abu Ali Reda, a Badr Unit commander. Previously, four of Hezbollah's top commanders, pivotal pillars of the organization, were killed.
These include Ibrahim Aqeel (Operations Head), Mohammad Qabisi (Missile and Rocket Unit Head), Fouad Shukr (Supreme Commander of Hezbollah), and Al Karki (South Front Commander). In terms of the organization's second-line leaders, the Israeli army eliminated Wisam Al Tawil (Radwan Force Commander), Abu Hasan Samir (Radwan Force Training Head), Mohammad Hussain Sarour (Ariel Command Commander), Sami Taleb Abdullah (Naser Unit Commander), and Mohammad Naser (Aziz Unit Commander) in airstrikes. Thus, the IDF has completely weakened Hezbollah.

According to Lebanon's health ministry, at least six people were killed and over 91 were injured in Israeli airstrikes on Friday night. The IDF claims to have killed Muhammad Ali Ismail, commander of Hezbollah's missile unit, and his deputy Hussein Ahmad Ismail in the attack. Ali Ismail was responsible for directing several terrorist attacks against Israel.
In retaliation, Hezbollah has launched rockets into Israeli territory. According to Reuters, most of the rockets were intercepted in the air, though some fell in residential areas of northern Israel, causing several houses to catch fire. Skirmishes between Hezbollah and Israel have escalated since an attack last year on October 7, reaching a critical point now.
