Iran Calls Emergency Meeting After Israel Hits Hezbollah Leader’s HQ With Massive Airstrikes

Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is convening a high-level security meeting after Israel launched massive airstrikes in Beirut targeting the leader of Hezbollah, according to The New York Times.

Khamenei will be meeting with members of the Supreme National Security Council at his compound in Iran after Israeli forces launched a major airstrike in the southern suburbs of Beirut in an apparent attempt to eliminate Hezbollah’s Hassan Nasrallah, who helms the Iran-sponsored terrorist group, according to the NYT. It is currently unclear whether Nasrallah was killed in the strikes, which have reportedly killed at least two people and injured dozens more with the toll expected to rise.

Israel reportedly believed Nasrallah to be present at a headquarters facility located beneath buildings in the Lebanese capital city, according to the NYT. The major strikes appear to have essentially flattened at least four buildings, with nearby cars also being damaged or destroyed.
