Update from northern Israel • Joy in Israel after Nasrallah elimination

Tal Hartuv - 30 September 2024

A few minutes after Shabbat came in on Friday 27th September, the Israeli Air Force dropped 83 tonnes of explosives on a Shi’ite neighborhood in Beirut. The result was so vast that it decimated 6 buildings several stories high. 

Underneath the complex were hundreds  of ballistic  miles, drones and munitions. Eliminated were leaders from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, but most importantly of all, Israel’s greatest enemy for 32 years, the leader of Hezbollah, Hasan Nasrallah.

On Sunday, his body was found under the rubble intact indicating that the mass murderer died a long and suffocating death.

Ever since Friday, Israel has stepped up attacks on Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon seeing a significant reduction of missiles sent to the north, save for Shabbat, where many parts of the country endured several attacks over many hours.

Israel has also taken complete control of the airport and ports in Lebanon allowing all traffic save for Iran, and even threatening to blow up an Iranian plane if it did not turn back.

In the last 48 hours Israel has attacked also proxy Iranian munition routes in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.

As new broke of the assassination of Nasrallah, Israelis celebrated. The joy was matched in all Sunni populations. In Syria, Sunni Muslims wrote a poster in Hebrew, holding an Israeli flag thanking Netanyahu.

‘These next few days are critical for Israel, who need to resist international pressure and carry on with the incredible strategic and military achievements’

Despite American and French pressure for an immediate ceasefire, Israel has learned not to listen to any administration, preferring instead to deal with the diplomatic level while concurrently carrying out  the continued necessary military action. Three brigades have been called up for what may be a necessary ground invasion.

These next few days are critical for Israel, who need to resist international pressure and carry on with the incredible strategic and military achievements so that we can return our civilians to the north, bring our hostages home and bring peace through strength to the Middle East.
