The Hezbollah terror group confirms the death of its top spokesman in an IDF strike in Beirut earlier today.

Mohammad Afif was the chief of Hezbollah’s media relations.

He was killed in a strike on the headquarters of the Syrian Ba’ath Party in central Beirut, not in the terror group’s Dahiyeh stronghold in the southern suburbs of the capital.

Israel has not commented on the strike.
