Israel continues to attack Hezbollah’s ‘military and political assets’

Powerful blasts were heard overnight across the capital. Security sources say there were 11 consecutive strikes similar to the night when Israel assassinated Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an underground bunker last week.

The Israeli army has made no statement. Israeli media are saying the possible target was Hashem Safieddine, a top figure in Hezbollah and Nasrallah’s cousin. He is a potential successor.

If indeed he was killed, this would be another major setback for the organisation. Israel is attacking anyone or anything that is associated with Hezbollah.

Officials in the organisation talk about the possibility of an Israeli mole. There is a lot of disarray in its ranks. Israel is going after its military and political assets.
