00:00The Hezbollah party confirmed that its commander, Ibrahim Aqeel, and several other senior officials
00:07were killed in the Israeli attacks in Beirut's southern suburb of Dahiyeh on Friday.
00:13They called the attacks a treacherous Israeli assassination.
00:17They said another commander, Ahmed Wabi, who oversaw the military operation of the Radwan
00:22Special Forces during the Gaza War until early 2024, was also killed.
00:29Dahiyeh's airstrikes in southern Beirut have claimed at least 31 lives, including seven
00:34women and three children.
00:36Israel's military spokesman, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, said the Hezbollah commanders
00:41were eliminated when they gathered underground in the Dahiyeh neighborhood to coordinate
00:46attacks against Israel.
00:48Lebanese said Israel had certainly crossed the red lines with the latest attacks.
00:52Israel is a criminal, a war criminal, it reminds us of what it's doing in Gaza, it's
01:07starting to do it in Lebanon, and what we saw yesterday, it reminds us of this attack.
01:17Hezbollah said they had fired rockets at what it described as the main intelligence headquarters
01:21in northern Israel.
01:23The United Nations said they are very concerned with the Middle East crisis and the region
01:28is on the brink of a catastrophe.
01:30We urge all parties to de-escalate immediately, all must exercise maximum restraint.
01:37We also urge the parties to immediately return to the cessation of hostilities and to fully
01:42implement Security Council Resolution 1701.
01:47The attacks inflicted another blow on Hezbollah and Lebanon after devices including pagers
01:52and walkie-talkies used by the party members and civilians exploded, killing 37 people
01:58and wounding more than 3,000 others.
