Hassan Nasrallah, the long-time leader of Iran-backed Hezbollah, was killed in an airstrike in Lebanon's capital Beirut, Israel's military says.
Israel 's military said Saturday that it had killed the overall leader of the Iran -backed group Hezbollah in an airstrike the previous day on the group's 'central headquarters' in Beirut , Lebanon . The Friday afternoon strike was the latest in a series of massive explosions targeting leaders of the militant group, which has been firing rockets and drones across Lebanon 's southern border into Israel for almost a year.
The shock wave rattled windows and shook houses some 18 miles north of Beirut. TV footage showed several craters — one with a car toppled into it — amid collapsed buildings in the densely populated, predominantly Shiite neighborhood.Nasrallah had been in hiding for years, very rarely appearing in public. He regularly gave speeches, but always by video from unknown locations.
