Will the Assassination of Hezbollah Senior Leader Fouad Shouker Lead to an All-Out War Between Israel and Hezbollah?
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have officially confirmed the assassination of Fouad Shouker, a senior Hezbollah leader known as Hajj Mohsen, in Beirut.
This operation was conducted in response to the massacre in the village of Majdal Shams, where 12 Druze boys were killed, an atrocity attributed to Hezbollah.
Israel is bracing for a potential response from Hezbollah but does not desire an all-out war. The decision on how to proceed now lies with Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, who is consulting with Tehran on the nature of their response.
