Year after assassination, Hezbollah-linked outlet publishes what it claims to be last image of Nasrallah

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

Marking a year since his assassination by Israel, the Hezbollah-linked al-Mayadeen outlet airs what it says is the last image of the Lebanese terror group’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah.

Nasrallah is seen at Hezbollah’s “command operations room,” days before he was killed in an Israeli airstrike, al-Mayadeen says.

At that point, Israel had begun a major offensive against Hezbollah, beginning with the so-called pager attack, and continuing with strikes that took out many of the group’s top commanders and key infrastructure.

The offensive culminated with the assassination of Nasrallah while he was at Hezbollah’s main underground command center in Beirut on September 27, 2024. The Israeli Air Force dropped dozens of bunker-busting bombs on the site, leveling several buildings in the process. Days later, the IDF sent ground troops into southern Lebanon.
