Hezbollah leader Ali Mohammed Younis was reportedly assassinated in southern Lebanon overnight.

A Lebanese report cited by Channel 13 news says his body was found by the side of a road with stab and gunshot wounds.

According to reports, Younis was responsible for “tracking collaborators” and was a close associate of Qassem Soleimani, a commander of Iran’s elite Quds Force who was killed in a US airstrike in January.
