Israeli airstrike kills another senior Hezbollah official, hours after eliminating leader Hassan Nasrallah.

In a significant blow to Hezbollah, top official Nabil Kaouk was killed, just hours after the organization's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, fell victim to an Israeli airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon on Friday, September 27.

Kaouk, a veteran Hezbollah member since the 1980s, previously served as deputy director general for the southern region. His death was announced by the Israeli military on Sunday, September 29.

The Israeli military reported that the airstrike also resulted in the deaths of over 20 other Hezbollah terrorists of various ranks, dealing a substantial blow to the organization's leadership and operational capabilities.

Israel's military also noted on Sunday, September 29 that “more than 20 other terrorists of varying ranks were also killed in the attack.

“Hezbollah has not commented on Kaouk's fate but supporters have been posting mourning messages for him since yesterday.

“The IDF continues to attack and eliminate the commanders of the Hezbollah terrorist organisation and to act against anyone who threatens the citizens of the State of Israel.”

Israel unleashes wave of airstrikes on Hezbollah, targeting 120 sites.

The Israeli military concluded that, “we hit dozens more Hezbollah targets in Lebanon during a new barrage 'a short while ago' as frequent cross-border air raids continued.

“During the intelligence-based strikes, the (air force) struck approximately 120 Hezbollah terror targets in southern Lebanon and deep inside Lebanese territory.”
