Israeli military kills top Hezbollah intel commander Hassan Khalil Yassin in another strike
The Israeli Defence Force (IDF) has eliminated senior Hezbollah intelligence array terrorist Hassan Khalil Yassin in an additional precision strike in the Dahieh district in Beirut on Saturday, the military reported.
“Yassin stood at the head of a department responsible for the identification of civilian and military targets, on the northern border and deep within Israeli territory,” the IDF stated.
The initial IDF announcement of another strike in Beirut came mere hours after the Hezbollah terrorist organization confirmed the death of its former leader, Hassan Nasrallah.
The IDF noted that the Military Intelligence Directorate directed the strike.
“As part of his role, Yassin collaborated intensely with all of Hezbollah’s offensive units, was personally involved in the planning of terror attacks that were executed during the war against Israeli civilians and soldiers, and planned additional attacks to be carried out in the coming days,” the military added.
