Under Attack: Targeted Assassination Attempt in Beirut Against Missile Commander | WATCH
A targeted assassination attempt in Beirut targets Ali al-Husseini, a top missile commander, following intense discussions with the Trump administration.
A targeted assassination attempt was carried out in Beirut today, reportedly aiming at a senior commander within a specialized missile unit.
According to initial reports, the operation targeted Ali al-Husseini, who serves as the head of rocketry and missile operations for the Imam Hossein Division.
The high-stakes strike comes amid intense regional dynamics. Sources familiar with the situation indicate that the operation follows highly intensive dialogue and discussions with the Trump administration over the last few days.
As a result of direct pressure by President Trump, Israel refrained from attacking Beirut over the past 22 days, even as Hezbollah massacred and maimed IDF soldiers.
No official confirmation has been released regarding the status of al-Husseini following the targeted attempt.
Doron Kadosh added:
This is a Hezbollah commander, though at this early stage, we can say he is not especially senior in the group, and it is not yet certain if the assassination was successful.
