The Israeli army killed this Friday to the leader of the Lebanese group HezbollahHassan Nasrallah, in the Israeli bombing of the movement’s headquarters in the southern suburbs of Beirut. A death that Eduardo Saldaña indicated that Israel had been preparing for some time.
“The Israeli government had been tracking Nasrallah for years and knew it because it was not seen in his public statements. The elimination of Nasrallah is very significant because he is a very powerful popular character. During its 30 years of rule, Hezbollah grew very strong, strengthened its ties with Iran and expanded its activities in Iraq and Syria. This cuts off the head of Hezbollah,” said the co-director of “The World Order”.
The ease and speed with which Israel eliminated senior Hezbollah officials is a sign of Israel’s knowledge of the Lebanese group’s movements: “It is a message of the level of Israeli intelligence presence in Hezbollah. They eliminated the goals in the meetings that they had. You need to have internal knowledge of the structure to know these movements.
On the other hand, Israel continues its conflict in Gaza without reaching an agreement for the release of hostages with Hamas. Another war opened by Israel which, for Saldaña, could end up being hidden (for the benefit of Netanyahu) by Israeli attacks in Lebanon: “The conflict will continue in Gaza by attacking Hamas. The turn to Lebanon is a very good thing for the Netanyahu government, because it gets popular support, because people are looking north while you continue the operation in Gaza. and you control the manifestations.”
