Israel Targets Potential Hezbollah Leader Hashem Safieddine During Underground Bunker Meet In Beirut An Israeli strike on Beirut targeted senior Hezbollah official Hashem Safieddine, Axios reported on October 4, citing an Israeli source. Safieddine, the head of Hezbollah’s executive council, is presumed to be the successor of Hassan Nasrallah following his assassination on September 27. While the IDF had not yet commented on the strike, Axios reporter Barak Ravid cites two Israeli sources as saying Safieddine was the target. Israel's attack in Beirut targeted a meeting attended by Safieddine and other Hezbollah leaders in an underground bunker, The New York Times reported. However, it remains unclear if Safieddine was harmed in the Israeli strike, which has been reported to have been one of the heaviest in the past year.
