Communication with Hezbollah's senior leader cut off after Israeli airstrike in Beirut

In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the death of Ibrahim Qubaisi, the commander of Hezbollah’s rocket and missile division, in a targeted airstrike in Beirut's Dahiyeh suburb. This strike, aimed at crippling Hezbollah's military leadership, marks a significant blow to the militant group's operational capabilities. The IDF reported that Qubaisi was killed alongside several senior officers during the raid, highlighting his pivotal role in coordinating missile attacks against Israel over the years. Having joined Hezbollah in the 1980s, Qubaisi was a key figure in various missile units, including precision-guided missile operations. His elimination follows a series of Israeli strikes against Hezbollah leaders, intensifying tensions in the region and prompting outrage from Hezbollah, which vows to respond to this targeted action. As the conflict escalates, the implications of this strike reverberate through the security dynamics of both Lebanon and Israel. #Hezbollah #IDF #IbrahimQubaisi #HezbollahMissileRocketCommanderKilled #HezbollahCommanderKilled #BeirutStrike #BeirutStrike #MilitaryTensions #MiddleEastConflict #IsraeliAirstrike #RocketCommander #HezbollahLeadership #Lebanon #Israel #RegionalSecurity #ConflictEscalation #Terrorism #MilitaryOperations #Gaza
