The body of Hezbollah senior military commander Fuad Shukr may have been found under the rubble of the building that was targeted in Beirut, Lebanon, on Tuesday, the daily Lebanese newspaper An-Nahar reported on Wednesday.
Lebanon’s Hezbollah said early on Wednesday its senior commander was in the building in the southern suburbs of Beirut targeted by an Israeli strike.
The IDF announced late on Tuesday it had killed Shukr, whom it named as Hezbollah’s most senior commander and blamed for an attack at the weekend that left a dozen youths dead in the Golan Heights.
Halevi in North: ‘We also know how to maneuver strongly’
IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi visited a military exercise in the North on Wednesday and spoke of Israel’s maneuvering capabilities.
“The IDF knows how to operate and reach a certain window in a neighborhood in Beirut; it also knows how to attack at a certain point in the underground, and we also know how to maneuver inside very strongly,” he said.
“We have confidence in our plans to move forward because our intention with Hezbollah is not to return to October 6,” Halevi added.
