Israel's military stated on Thursday that an operation in the Beirut area has led to the death of Ali Yusuf Harshi. The IDF identified Harshi as the nephew of Hezbollah's Secretary-General, Naim Qassem, and also as Qassem's personal secretary.
The statement from the military confirmed the action, "The IDF carried out a strike in the Beirut area and killed Ali Yusuf Harshi, who served as the personal secretary and was the nephew of Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem."
An update was later issued to clarify that the individual killed was Naim Qassem's nephew, correcting earlier reports that might have suggested Naim Qassem himself was targeted.
