Suhail Hussein Husseini reportedly killed as Israel continues to target armed group’s chain of command.
Israeli forces have reported the killing of another senior Hezbollah commander in a strike on the Lebanese capital.
The Israeli army said in a statement on X on Tuesday that Suhail Hussein Husseini, head of the Hezbollah headquarters, was killed as its fighter jets “targeted the Beirut area”.
Israel has claimed significant success since it began targeting the Lebanese armed group’s chain of command last month in a series of attacks that have also killed many civilians.
The army said Husseini’s death was another significant strike on Hezbollah. He was involved in weapons transfers between Iran and the group and in distributing smuggled weapons among various units in Hezbollah, it said.
Husseini was also responsible for the budgeting and logistics of Hezbollah’s “most sensitive projects”, including planning attacks against Israel from Lebanon and Syria, it added.
