Israel-Iran War Live Updates: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei presided over Friday prayers for the first time in five years and participated in a commemoration ceremony for Hassan Nasrallah today. His speech is anticipated to provide insights into the Islamic Republic’s strategies following a significant missile assault on Israel.
On Thursday night, Israel reported that it targeted Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters located in Beirut, Lebanon. The Israel Defense Forces asserted that they had eliminated Hezbollah leader Mahmoud Yusef Anisi, describing him as “a senior terrorist involved in Hezbollah’s precision-guided missile production in Lebanon.”
In light of the intensified conflict, Sky News Arabia has reported that Hashem Safieddine, the head of Hezbollah’s executive council and a potential successor to Hassan Nasrallah, was the target of Israel’s recent strike in the southern suburbs of Beirut. Additionally, Israel’s Channel 12 indicated that the “unusual” attacks in the suburb were directed at “Nasrallah’s successor.”
Furthermore, the Israeli military announced early Friday that it had killed Zahi Yaser Abd al-Razeq Oufi, the leader of the Hamas network, in an operation in Tulkarm, located in the West Bank. Concurrently, multiple explosions were reported in Tel Aviv, Israel.
Tensions have escalated between Israel and the Iran-backed Hezbollah following a series of pager and walkie-talkie explosions attributed to Hezbollah, which were succeeded by Iran launching a significant missile barrage towards Israel. U.S. President Joe Biden recently expressed his belief that “I don’t believe there is going to be an all-out war. I think we can avoid it.”
