The Israeli attack in Beirut’s southern suburbs targeted a meeting that Hashem Safieddine was attending with other senior Hezbollah leaders in an underground bunker, the New York Times reports, citing three unnamed Israeli officials.

It remains unclear if Safieddine was harmed in the Israeli strike, which has reported to have been one of the heaviest in the past year.
