Israel's "10 Days Of Attack" Ends In Nasrallah Killing, Netanyahu Agreed Just Before UN Speech? The decision to go ahead with the strike that killed Hassan Nasrallah was reportedly taken by Israeli PM shortly before he addressed the UN in New York on Sept 27. The decision had been approved in principle by the Israeli cabinet on Sept. 26 evening, as per a report by Channel 12.The strike culminated what the report said is being described in Israeli defence circles as “The 10 days of attacks.” It all began with the detonation of thousands of pagers owned by Hezbollah on September 17.The possibility of eliminating Nasrallah was “on the table” as early as Sept 25, the Channel 12 report said.There were discussions that day involving the chief of staff, Mossad chief, Shin Bet chief, and Gallant — and they all said Israel should do it, the report added. Netanyahu did not approve the strike before he left for the US in the early hours of Sept 26. The report said that Netanyahu was under unspecified pressure to postpone the assassination until he returned to Israel. However, he was convinced by Yoav Gallant and other top defence officials to take the rare opportunity, the report added.
