The IDF’s Intelligence Directorate disclosed Saturday night that Hassan Nasrallah, the late leader of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, spent his final days inside a bunker constructed with Iranian technology and didn’t realize he was next on Israel’s list for assassination.
The report comes exactly a year after the leader of the Lebanese terror group was killed by an Israeli strike
According to the Directorate, Nasrallah remained in the underground facility following the elimination of senior Hezbollah commander Ibrahim Aqil and after Israel’s “beeper” operation targeting the group’s communications network.
Despite warnings, he chose not to relocate, continuing to plan counterattacks and attempting to rebuild the organization’s capabilities.
Each effort, officials said, was thwarted by Israeli forces.
The bunker, described as one of Hezbollah’s most secretive and compartmentalized sites, was identified through years of intelligence gathering.
On September 27, 2024, at 18:21, as part of Operation “New Order,” the Israeli Air Force struck the site with 83 bombs simultaneously, killing Nasrallah along with Ali Karkhi, commander of Hezbollah’s Southern Front, and additional senior terrorists.
IAF commander Tomer Bar, speaking after the strike, said: “We will reach them all, continue with the same professionalism, maintain the same composure, we are on the right path.”
Nasrallah had led Hezbollah for 32 years, overseeing the murder of Israeli civilians and soldiers and orchestrating attacks worldwide.
He played a central role in directing terrorist operations across multiple countries and was regarded as the organization’s strategic decision-maker.
Hezbollah joined Hamas in its war against Israel on October 8, 2023, launching daily attacks from Lebanon that drew the region into wider conflict.
The IDF said Nasrallah’s refusal to leave his Iranian-built bunker highlighted the effectiveness of its intelligence and the precision of its targeting campaign.
The strike marked one of the most significant blows to Hezbollah in decades, removing its long-serving leader and several top commanders, while reinforcing Israel’s vow to continue dismantling the group’s military capabilities.
