Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, the IDF has raked up offences against key Hezbollah leaders. In the latest strike in Beirut, the IDF apparently eliminated Hezbollah Chief Hassan Nasrallah’s rumoured successor Hashem Safieddine. Post Beirut’s attack, Hashem Safieddine has been out of contact with the Hezbollah leadership, Hezbollah has not commented so far on the issue. The loss of Nasrallah’s rumoured successor would be yet another blow to Hezbollah and its patron Iran. Israeli strikes across the region in the past year, sharply accelerated in the past few weeks, have decimated Hezbollah’s leadership.
