In a Friday afternoon operation, the IDF eliminated Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah during an airstrike in Lebanon. In 1976, at the age of 16, Hassan Nasrallah traveled to Iraq where he met Abbas al-Musawim, who later served as the Secretary-General of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, and he joined the Shia Islamic movement, the Dawa Party, many of whose members later joined Hezbollah. In 1982, he left the Amal Movement and, with the help of other Shia Islamic figures and Iranian support, established the Hezbollah terrorist organization, in which he obtained a senior position among Hezbollah’s founders. Shortly after, he was given responsibility for the Beqaa area, at just 22 years old.
