Hezbollah confirms leader was killed in Israeli strike on Beirut
Hezbollah has confirmed that its chief of staff, Haitham Ali Tabataba'i, was killed in an Israeli strike on southern Beirut earlier Sunday.
Tabataba'i "joined his martyr brothers," Hezbollah said in a lengthy statement Sunday.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's office said earlier Sunday that Tabataba'i was the target of their strike, which the Lebanon Health Ministry said killed a total of five people and injured 28.
