Beirut, Lebanon: Israel’s military said on Thursday it had hit Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters in the Lebanese capital, as troops battled militants near the border and warplanes bombarded their strongholds around the country.
The air raids reportedly targeted Hezbollah official Hashim Safi Al Din, considered Nasrallah’s likely successor to former chief Hassan Nasrallah, while he was in an underground bunker. It remains unclear if he was killed in the strike.
