The Shia militia Hezbollah confirms that one of its top commanders, Ibrahim Kobeissi, was killed in an Israeli attack in a suburb of Beirut.

The attack, the third to hit Beirut in less than a week, destroyed three floors of a six-story building.

Israel’s military has previously stated that Kobeissi was responsible for several attacks against Israel, and that he helped plan an attack in which three Israeli soldiers were kidnapped and killed in 2000.
