Hezbollah Commander, with $7 Million Bounty, Fatally Struck in Beirut

Hezbollah reports that 483 of its members were killed by Israel from October 7 in multiple conflicts at the Israel-Lebanon border and in Syria.

Israel confirmed the precise airstrike on Beirut that resulted in the death of Ibrahim Aqil, leader of Hezbollah's Radwan Force, on Friday. The assault struck a gathering of top commanders, resulting in the deaths of a minimum of 14 individuals, which included 10 prominent officials.

Here are key points regarding this significant event:

Aqil, a high-ranking military member of Hezbollah who is sought by the United States for his involvement in the 1983 bombings of the US Embassy and Marine barracks in Beirut, was acknowledged by Hezbollah as a crucial leader. Hezbollah has officially verified his death, hailing him as a notable leader in jihad. The United States had offered a $7 million reward for Aqil's capture due to his role in the 1983 bombings that resulted in the deaths of numerous Americans in Lebanon. Aqil was implicated in the abduction of American and European captives during the 1980s.  

The airstrike targeted Hezbollah's stronghold in southern Beirut, causing extensive destruction such as a large crater and a collapsed high-rise structure. Rescue personnel persisted in combing through the debris in search of any remaining survivors. Hezbollah launched numerous rockets at Israeli military positions in retaliation for the airstrike. 

The death of Aqil is a significant loss for Hezbollah's leadership, particularly given its proximity to the recent death of Fuad Shukr in an Israeli airstrike. Both individuals held prominent positions in Hezbollah's military division and were integral in orchestrating assaults against Israel. 

The airstrike occurred after a series of bombings that occurred over the past week, aimed at disrupting Hezbollah's communication infrastructure and resulting in the casualties of 37 militants. Israeli military authorities have reported that Aqil was fatally shot during a meeting with fellow commanders to strategize future assaults on Israel, including a potential incursion into northern Israeli territories. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) characterized the gathering as a component of Hezbollah's "Conquer the Galilee" strategy, intended to breach Israeli communities.

The United Nations and neighboring parties voiced apprehension regarding the escalating tensions. Stephane Dujarric, the spokesperson for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, urged all parties to exercise restraint. Iran, a supporter of Hezbollah, strongly condemns the strike and accuses Israel of expanding the scope of the conflict. The attack has been denounced by Iran's foreign ministry as a breach of international law, and Hezbollah has promised retaliation. Israel, nonetheless, justified the operation as essential for safeguarding its national security.

Admiral Daniel Hagari, an Israeli military spokesperson, emphasized Israel's intention to neutralize threats to its citizens without pursuing a wider conflict. The Israel-Lebanon border has seen frequent exchanges of fire between Hezbollah and Israeli forces since the Gaza war commenced in October. The conflict was initiated by Hamas' fatal assault on Israel on October 7, leading to Hezbollah's involvement in the war. 

Hezbollah has initiated rocket assaults on northern Israel, escalating in frequency in recent weeks. Lebanon's Health Ministry confirmed that the attacks resulted in the deaths of 14 individuals and injuries to 66 others, with expectations of a higher casualty toll. Local residents have characterized the bombardment as one of the most intense in recent years.

Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue the long-running offensive against the southern Gaza town of Rafah, regardless of Hamas' response to calls for a new ceasefire and the return of Israeli hostages. Hopes for an end to the conflict have risen in recent days, with Egypt once again calling for the resumption of negotiations between Israel and Hamas. But so far there is little agreement between the two sides on the most important differences. Meanwhile, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has expressed concern about Israel's increasing isolation from the conflict in Gaza. Most of Gaza'...
