The strike reportedly targeted an office belonging to Hamas in Mushrifiyah in the southern suburbs of Lebanon's capital.​

Saleh al-Arouri, deputy leader of the Hamas terrorist movement, was killed along with at least five other people in an alleged drone strike in the southern suburbs of Beirut, a stronghold for Hezbollah, Hamas confirmed on Tuesday evening.

Arouri has been noted as a central target for Israel in the past year due to his central role in planning the October 7 massacre and his role in organizing terrorism in the West Bank in recent years. The identity of the other individuals killed in the strike is unclear as of yet, although at least two of them were reportedly senior Hamas figures as well.

Palestinian factions in the West Bank declared a day of rage for Wednesday in response to the assassination.Hezbollah MP Hussein Jishi warned after the strike that "Hezbollah will respond to the assassination, and this is settled, and matters remain to be determined," in comments to Al-Araby al-Jadeed.

Israel today on Telegram:

Confirmed dead in the strike on Beirut:
Saleh al-Arouri - senior Hamas politburo official, director of terrorism in Judea and Samaria in recent years, and one of the architects of October 7

Khalil al-Hayya - senior politburo official and member of the Palestinian Parliament, and deputy to Gaza-based Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar

Suspected eliminations:
Osama Hamdan - senior Hamas politburo official and spokesman for the terror group
Abu Amar - head of Hamas forces in southern Lebanon

It seems Israel might have eliminated the entire senior Hamas leadership in Lebanon in a single strike.

The top leaders in what was formally known as hamas, they can run, but they can only hide for so long. They know their days are limited.

After Israel eliminates hamas and hezbollah satan will be pretty upset. I could see the world condemning Israel and a coalition forming to seek "justice" against Israel.
