Hezbollah’s ‘Rocket Man’ Ibrahim Qubaisi killed in an Israeli airstrike in Beirut
In a significant escalation of violence in the region, an Israeli airstrike in Beirut on Tuesday killed Ibrahim Qubaisi, the head of Hezbollah’s missile division. The strike, which also reportedly eliminated at least two other high-ranking Hezbollah commanders, targeted the Dahiyeh suburb and underscored the growing threat posed by Hezbollah’s missile operations.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed Qubaisi’s death, highlighting his pivotal role in the development and execution of Hezbollah’s missile capabilities over the past several decades. Hezbollah has acknowledged the loss, referring to Qubaisi as a martyr “on the road to Jerusalem,” a term they often use for fighters killed in confrontations with Israeli forces.
The airstrike coincided with a surge in hostilities between Hezbollah and Israel, with the Iran-backed militant group launching over 300 rockets towards northern Israeli cities, including Haifa, Safed, and Nazareth. In response, Israeli air raid sirens sounded throughout the Galilee region, signaling the immediate threat to civilians in the area.
This latest exchange of fire follows a period of heightened violence that has surged since the onset of the Gaza war in October 2023. Experts warn that the conflict could escalate further, potentially dragging in Iranian-backed groups from neighboring regions, including Yemen and Iraq, and leading to a broader confrontation in the Middle East.
As tensions continue to rise, the situation remains fluid, with both sides preparing for further military engagements. The international community is closely monitoring developments, as fears grow that this conflict could spiral into a multi-front war.
