From Fox News: The Israeli Defense Forces carried out a “precise strike” on the central headquarters of Hezbollah in Beirut, Lebanon, the IDF announced Friday.
IDF spokesperson Rear admiral Daniel Hagari said the headquarters were intentionally built in the heart of the Dahieh in Beirut under residential buildings “as part of Hezbollah’s strategy of using Lebanese people as human shields.”
Video and images show plumes of smoke rising over Beirut following the Israeli strikes. Witnesses say they heard multiple strikes.
Fox News has learned the target of the attack was Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. It is unclear if Nasrallah was struck.
According to the Times of Israel, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved the strike from his hotel room in New York City.
The strike reportedly occurred shortly after Netanyahu delivered a forceful speech at the United Nations General Assembly in New York Friday morning.
