Israel claims to have killed Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in an IDF operation named ‘New Order’ – a massive airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon’s capital city. This comes after a source highlighted that Hezbollah lost contact with their chief on Friday evening. However, this hasn’t been confirmed by Iran-backed Hezbollah.
In a social media post on X (formerly Twitter), Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee said the Israeli military eliminated Hassan Nasrallah. He said Nasrallah was one of the world’s strongest and most influential terrorists. Adraee described the Hezbollah chief as one of the terrorists with the most capabilities in the world, was a real threat, and had the blood of thousands of people on his hands.
Lieutenant Colonel Nadav Shoshani said their target was an underground complex beneath a residential building. He claimed the IDF had real-time intelligence and operational opportunity to execute the strike. Shoshani highlighted that every operation is based on extensive intelligence and careful understanding beforehand.

Iran Moves its Supreme Leader – Potential Israel Next Target
Meanwhile, Iran has moved its Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei to a secure location within the Islamic Republic. Iranian authorities have enhanced security protocols and remain in communication with Hezbollah.
Khamenei called out Israel for killing defenseless people in Lebanon and Gaza. He said the terror gang ruling the Zionist regime did not learn from their ongoing criminal war in Gaza and failed to understand that the mass killing of women, children, and civilians cannot affect the Resistance.
The Supreme Leader said all the Resistance forces of the region are with Hezbollah and support it.
The IDF continues with its heavy airstrikes on Beirut’s Dahie, killing dozens of people and injuring hundreds in the southern suburbs and other areas of Lebanon. The Israeli army has also deployed three reserve battalions to enhance its Central Command defense.
