New Delhi: On one hand, the fight between Israel and Hezbollah is becoming more fierce. Lebanon is also trapped in this war. Late last Friday evening, Israel conducted several airstrikes one after the other in Lebanon's capital Beirut. This strike is being considered as Israel's most serious attack in Lebanon.

Not only this, Israel also attacked the headquarters of Hezbollah in Beirut. This headquarters was said to be under a Riyashi building. It is being said that Hezbollah Chief Nasrallah had built a bunker in it. Earlier it was told that there could be a massacre in the bunker. However, now the Israeli army has said that it has killed the commander of Hezbollah's missile unit in southern Lebanon, Muhammad Ali Ismail, and his deputy Hossein Ahmed Ismail in the attack.
