The body of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on southern Beirut, has been recovered, according to sources close to the movement.

Nasrallah, considered one of the most powerful figures in Lebanon, was killed alongside Ali Karake, Hezbollah’s top commander in southern Lebanon, during the attack on Friday.

 

A medical and security source confirmed that Nasrallah’s body was found intact at the site of the airstrike in Beirut’s southern suburbs.

Israeli military officials also disclosed the death of another senior Hezbollah figure, Nabil Kaouk, as part of the ongoing exchange of strikes between the two sides.

Kaouk had been a longtime member of Hezbollah since the 1980s, serving as deputy director general of the southern region.

Hezbollah has not yet arranged Nasrallah’s funeral, though his body has been prepared for burial. Israel claims that over 20 Hezbollah fighters of various ranks were also killed in the airstrikes, signaling the ongoing intensity of the conflict between the two sides.
