Israeli Airstrike Allegedly Kills Hezbollah Commander

Israel executed a rare airstrike on Beirut, targeting and allegedly killing Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr, who was blamed for a rocket attack that killed 12 children in the Golan Heights over the weekend. The strike, which used drone-launched rockets, resulted in the death of at least one woman and injured several others, with Hezbollah denying involvement in the Golan attack and Shukr's death. The Israeli military asserts Shukr directed numerous attacks against Israeli and foreign nationals and had a significant role in Hezbollah's advanced weaponry programs. The incident has heightened tensions, with concerns it could escalate the conflict into a regional war. Additionally, an Israeli military court is investigating nine soldiers for alleged sexual abuse of a Palestinian detainee, further straining military and nationalist relations within Israel.
