Abu Haider Nasrallah, the uncle of dead Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, has been killed in an Israeli strike in Al-Bazouriy, southern Lebanon, according to Lebanese reports.

This development comes amidst escalating tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, following Hassan Nasrallah’s assassination in an Israeli airstrike on September 27, 2024. The strike targeted Hezbollah’s underground headquarters in Beirut, killing Nasrallah and several senior commanders.

Hezbollah has been exchanging cross-border attacks with Israel since October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched the evil attacks on Israel, prompting Hezbollah to fire rockets.

In recent weeks, Israel has intensified its airstrikes on Lebanon, killing over 700 terrorists, injuring more than 5,000.
