Pictures from the area that was subjected to the devastating air attack indicate that Israel High-energy bunker buster bombs, each weighing approximately a ton, were used in large quantities.
It is believed that these bombs are capable of penetrating several meters of concrete, and tens of meters of unprotected ground.
The effects of the strikes spread across a large area, both above and below ground, making it difficult to determine whether… Nasrallah Is present in the targeted area, or if he was killed or injured.
Such bombs cause severe damage to the targets they hit, making identifying victims very difficult, as the intensity of the explosion, combined with the heat generated and dense debris, complicates efforts to confirm the number of victims, especially when the target is buried under huge layers of rubble.
The Lebanese Ministry of Health confirmed that 6 people were killed and 91 injured in the attack, but stressed that the toll was “not final.”
If Nasrallah had not been at the site that was attacked, it would likely have been issued Hezbollah Evidence or statement, however, the Iran-backed group’s silence indicates “uncertainty.”
A similar situation occurred in Gaza last July, when the military commander of Hamas was targeted Muhammad Al-Deif In a strong Israeli blow, while he briefly emerged from a tunnel, it took several days to confirm the result.
A source close to Hezbollah told Reuters that contact with Nasrallah was cut off after the Israeli strikes on the southern suburb of Beirut on Friday evening.
Hezbollah did not issue a statement regarding Nasrallah’s fate, even hours after the attack.
Although the Iranian Tasnim news agency reported that he was fine, an Iranian security source told Reuters that Tehran was “verifying his condition.”
A senior Israeli official considered that “it is too early to confirm whether the Israeli strike hit the Hezbollah leader.”
