Hassan Nasrallah

Tens of thousands of people, driven fleeing by the war between Israel and Hezbollah, made their way home yesterday (Wednesday), with many finding their towns and villages hugely devastated after a ceasefire agreement went into effect in the early hours of this morning.

Iran is preparing measures to show a "proper response" to the recent Israeli attack, says Ali Larijani, a senior adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

On Oct. 26, Israeli fighter jets launched strikes on Iran, weeks after Tehran fired ballistic missiles at Israel in response to killings of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.

The Israel announced that it conducted “precision targeted strikes”against Iran today in response to an Iranian attack on October 1, primarily targeting missile manufacturing facilities. Tehran, for its part, announced “limited damage.”

Hassem Safientin, the top official of Hezbollah who was expected to succeed slain Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in an Israeli attack, the group confirmed Wednesday. “His Eminence Mr. Hashem Safedin was a martyr on his way to Jerusalem,” the statement stressed.

Hezbollah confirmed that Safientin was killed in an Israeli airstrike.

Israel's army stated it had killed the cleric tipped to succeed slain Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in an airstrike on Beirut three weeks ago that targeted commanders of the Iran-backed militant group.

Hezbollah has not issued a statement about the Israeli claims to have killed Hashem Safieddine.

The daily cost of Israel's wide-scale assaults on the Gaza Strip and Lebanon has reached $133 million (500 million shekels), according to an analysis by an Israeli daily citing official figures and sources.

Since Sunday night, Israeli fighter jets have been targeting specific locations where, according to widespread belief, there are no military targets. Early Monday morning, the IDF announced via a leak that it had struck the headquarters of Al-Qard Al-Hassan, a unique bank established by Hezbollah.

Following confirmation of the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, the orchestrator of the October 7 attacks, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the people of Gaza, stating that the conflict could end as soon as tomorrow if Hamas agrees to disarm and release the hostages. Netanyahu shared a video on X, saying, "Yahya Sinwar is dead.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that the killing of Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar in the Gaza Strip was the "beginning of the end" of the year-long war in the Palestinian territory.
