    How Israel Eliminated Nasrallah: Step-by-Step Demolition

    Vaseline Posted on

    In a covert and sophisticated operation, the Israeli army and military intelligence managed to assassinate Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah in the heart of Beirut’s Dahiya neighborhood. Here’s how it happened.

    Using advanced intelligence and a brilliant deception maneuver, including the Prime Minister’s flight to the US, security forces attacked the organization’s leadership in what is defined as one of the most important military operations.

    Former intelligence department chief Aaron Haliva had already considered the possibility of a targeted assassination of Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah on October 11, based on the intelligence agency’s advanced capabilities.

    This capability, built up over many years by military intelligence, did not exist during the Second Lebanon War, when there was no idea where he was hiding and the file on him was minimal, if not operationally useless.

    Security sources said the political, intelligence and operational circumstances for Nasrallah’s assassination had matured on Wednesday. Military intelligence again recommended action, and the political echelon approved it after being exposed to the intimate and sensitive intelligence gathered to close the loop.

    Preparation and decision for the targeted killing began on Wednesday. There was a nerve-wracking wait for precise and high-quality intelligence that could further determine the timing of the Hezbollah leadership meeting, demonstrating arrogance and its connection to the IDF’s intelligence and firepower capabilities.

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu went about his business as usual, greenlighting the progress of the ceasefire and deciding to fly to the US on the ‘Wing of Zion’ plane (Israel’s version of Air Force One), part of what appears to be a deception maneuver to lull Hezbollah’s leadership, which took the bait.

    Otherwise, the leadership meeting at an underground headquarters that serves as a command center for the Shiite organization in the heart of Beirut’s Dahiya neighborhood would not have taken place.

    During the flight to the US, security consultations took place with the ‘Wing of Zion’ aircraft, with information updates on developments in Lebanon and the readiness of the intelligence services and the air force to carry out an attack that no one could control escape, even in an underground space. network.

    On Thursday evening, the cabinet met for a conference call that ended at 4 a.m. Israel time and 9 a.m. New York time. The Prime Minister arranged the preparations from his hotel room in the US, after consulting with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi and Mossad Chief David Barnea. After the professional discussion, Netanyahu and Gallant were given permission to authorize the targeted killing based on incoming intelligence.

    At around 10 a.m. Israel time on Friday, Netanyahu held another security meeting with the defense minister and chief of staff, based on the latest intelligence. According to Israeli sources, the intelligence was received shortly before Netanyahu’s UN speech. The IDF completed preparations and increased preparedness and alertness in the monitoring and air defense systems.

    Consultations took place again and Netanyahu gave the green light for the targeted assassination that would shake the Middle East and the Arab world. The air force command gave the green light to arm planes with bunker-busting bombs. The Chief of Staff and the Minister of Defense descended into the ‘pit’, the underground IDF base in Tel Aviv, accompanied by the head of military intelligence, Major General Shlomi Binder, the commander of the air force, Major General Tomer Bar, and the chief of military intelligence. Operations Major General Oded Basiuk. A large number of fighter jets took off and as soon as the signal was given, they began to drop dozens of bombs one by one, one after another reporting “Alpha” on the communications network. The plumes of smoke were visible from far away.

    Unmanned aerial vehicles sent images to the air force ‘pit’ as buildings collapsed in the heart of the Dahiya district. Unlike the previous failed assassination of Ali Karaki, this time, due to the limited size of the ammunition, the scale was fatal. Nasrallah and the commander of Hezbollah’s southern front, Ali Karaki, were killed on the spot along with other senior figures. The rest is history.
