Israel Assassinates Senior Hezbollah Commander in Southern Lebanon
News - Middle East: Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah says Israel has assassinated a senior commander in an airstrike on southern Lebanon.
In a statement on Wednesday, Hezbollah confirmed that Mohamed Naim Nasser had been martyred.
It did not provide details about the circumstances of the assassination.
Reports said earlier in the day that Israel killed the commander in an air raid on the Hosh area in Tyre.
In response to the assassination, Hezbollah said its fighters launched “100 Katyusha rockets” targeting two Israeli positions in the occupied Golan Heights. It was, the statement said, part of Hezbollah’s “response to the attack and assassination that the enemy carried out.”
Two security sources told Reuters news agency that the assassinated commander was responsible for a section of Hezbollah’s operations at the border, where the group and Israeli forces have been fighting since October.
