The commander of Hezbollah’s headquarters in the Beirut area was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Monday, according to the Israel Defence Forces.
Israeli Air Force jets guided by the IDF’s Military Intelligence Directorate targeted Suhail Hussein Husseini, who the IDF said had “played a crucial role” in transferring weapons between Iran and its Lebanese terror proxy.
His duties also included distributing the weapons to Hezbollah units and overseeing the transportation and allocation of the arms.
Husseini was also responsible for managing the budgets and logistics of Hezbollah’s most sensitive projects, “including the organisation’s war plans and other special operations, such as co-ordinating terrorist attacks against the state of Israel from Lebanon and Syria,” the IDF said on Tuesday.
