Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah killed by Israeli airstrike in Lebanon's capital Beirut
Updated on: September 28, 2024 / 9:25 PM EDT / CBS/AP
Israel's military said Saturday that it killed Hassan Nasrallah, the overall leader of the Iran-backed group Hezbollah, in a Friday airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon. The militant group confirmed Nasrallah's death, saying its longtime leader "has joined his fellow martyrs."
Two United States officials also confirmed Nasrallah's death to CBS News.
The afternoon strike, carried out by fighter jets, targeted the group's "central headquarters," which were "embedded under a residential building" in Beirut's southern suburbs, according to the Israel Defense Forces. That region of the city has long been a stronghold of the U.S.-designated terror group.
Nasrallah, who only gave speeches via video because of his fear of assassination, led the terrorist group for 30 years with fiery rhetoric. He crystallized its threats to destroy Israel and the U.S. presence in Lebanon, and his death now leaves a void of leadership in the strongest paramilitary force in the Middle East.
In his first public remarks since the killing, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday evening that Israel had no choice but to target Nasrallah.
"At the start of the week, I came to the conclusion that the intense blows the Israeli military struck Hezbollah with, these blows were not enough. Nasrallah's assassination was an essential condition to achieving the goals we set," Netanyahu said.
In a separate statement Saturday, Israeli Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi said Nasrallah's killing demonstrated "anyone who threatens the citizens of Israel — we will know how to reach them."
