The Other Front

Israel killed the Iranian president, the Iranian foreign minister, Haniyeh, al-Arouri, Soleimani, Zahedi, Fakhrizadeh, Fouad Shukr, and all the leaders of Hezbollah. Hassan’s fate is still unknown, and Iran has not responded. I tell you that the arenas and red lines are one, and it turned out to be a slap in the face axis.

The above is from a Gaza account. To be clear, Israel has not owned killing Ebrahim Raisi. But his helicopter did go down. So bear that in mind when you read this. There are plenty of bad jokes circulating as well. However, in the Middle East, many Arabs do believe Israel was being this and not a mechanical failure, as Iran claimed.

Let’s go into today’s events because they may have critical effects down the line. Well, we have been waiting for confirmation all day, but Israel has hit the remaining command and control for Hezbollah in the last fourteen hours. It was a precision strike using probably a bunker penetrator.

So here is partially what we know so far from the Israeli side. Arabs mostly leave out the function of these buildings. However, I will add the Hamas press release, which is a side acknowledgment of what and who was hit:

4 buildings collapsed in the attack on Hezbollah’s main headquarters in Goveh HaDa’ah, Beirut.

The likely target: Hassan Nasrallah.
