Retrieving Nasrallah from the Rubble: What Was the Condition of the Body?

On Sunday afternoon, specialized teams managed to recover the body of Hezbollah’s Secretary-General, Hassan Nasrallah, after he was assassinated by the Israeli occupation forces in Beirut’s southern suburb on Friday.

A medical source and a security official told Reuters on Sunday that the body of Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary-General of the Lebanese Hezbollah group, was recovered from the site of the assassination and was intact.

The sources indicated that there were no visible direct injuries on Nasrallah’s body, suggesting that the cause of death was likely a severe shock from the force of the explosion.

On Saturday, the Israeli occupation army announced that it had assassinated Nasrallah in an airstrike conducted by its F-35 fighter jets on a target in the Haret Hreik area in Beirut’s southern suburb, the main stronghold of Hezbollah. The party later confirmed the assassination of its Secretary-General.

Coinciding with Nasrallah’s assassination, the Israeli occupation army has continued, since September 23, its most intense and widespread aggression on Lebanon since the confrontations with Hezbollah began about a year ago. By Saturday evening, the death toll had reached 816, including women and children, with 2,507 wounded. There are rising fears that the confrontations could escalate into a regional war.
