Hassan Nasrallah, longtime leader of Lebanon’s Hezbollah, is killed by his archenemy Israel

By BASSEM MROUE BEIRUT — Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who transformed the Lebanese militant group into a potent paramilitary and political force in the Middle East, was killed in an Israeli airstrike, the group said. He was 64. Nasrallah, who spearheaded Hezbollah’s war against Israel in 2006 and got the group heavily involved in neighboring Syria’s brutal conflict, was killed in a massive Israeli airstrike on the Beirut southern suburb of Haret Hreik Friday evening that knocked down several multistory apartment buildings. “His eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah’s secretary-general, had joined his fellow great martyrs whom he had led for 30 years from one victory to another,” Hezbollah said in a statement.
