In the past hour, Israel’s military says it has killed a Hezbollah commander in a strike yesterday in the Beirut area.
The Israel Defense Forces says Suhail Hussein Husseini played a “crucial” role in transporting weapons between Iran and Hezbollah. We haven’t seen any confirmation on his death from Hezbollah yet.
There were more explosions last night in Lebanon’s capital, with Lebanese media reporting at least 10 air strikes in Dahieh – the southern suburb of Beirut considered a Hezbollah stronghold.
In northern Israel, rocket warning sirens continued overnight and several more towns were declared closed military zones. Hezbollah earlier said it had targeted the outskirts of Tel Aviv with rockets, and Israel said Hezbollah had fired 190 projectiles by late on Monday.
