Hezbollah confirms the death of Ali Karaki, the commander of the Southern Front, responsible for the terror group’s military activity in south Lebanon.

Karaki was killed alongside Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in the IDF strike on Beirut on Friday. He had survived an Israeli assassination attempt earlier last week.
