The Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister, Israel Katz, on Saturday described the killing of Hezbollah leader, Hassan Nasrallah, as one of the most justified actions the country has ever taken.
In an X post, the minister commended Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli Defense Forces, IDF, for executing Nasrallah.
He wrote: “The elimination of arch-terrorist Nasrallah is one of the most justified counter-terrorism actions Israel has ever taken.
“Nasrallah, who dedicated his life to the destruction of Israel and led over 30 years of terror activity against Israel, including in recent days, deserved to be taken down, and it’s a good thing he was.
“I commend Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for initiating this bold action, the Defense Minister and cabinet members for approving it, and the Chief of Staff and the IDF for their brilliant planning and execution.
“We will continue to safeguard Israel’s security.”
Nasrallah was the leader of the Iran-backed militant group, Hezbollah, for 32 years.
He was reported to have been the target of Friday’s strikes on Beirut.
Disclosing this via X, the Israel Defense Forces said he “will no longer be able to terrorize the world”.
