“Or he did not intend to use precision missiles (ed. against Israel) today, but he may use them in the future,” said the organization’s leader in his address With a lot of interest he attended today (25.08.2024) all the world, Hassan Nasrala’s address for the attack Hezbollah made by launching 320 missiles against an Israeli military base near Tel Aviv. And while Israel “measures” its wounds, the eyes of the world have fallen upon the 63-year-old leader of the organization who confidently speaks on television about the power Hezbollah is hiding. Information about his life is minimal, as he tries in every way to protect himself from a possible murder. But who is Hasan Nasrala who ordered the missile attack on Israel? Sheikh Hassan Nasrala has been a Shia clergyman and chief of Hezbollah since 1992 and played a decisive role in transforming the organization into political, but also military power. He has close ties to Iran and his supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei since 1981, when Iran’s first supreme leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, appointed him his personal representative in Lebanon. Nasrala hasn’t appeared publicly in years because he’s been afraid of Israel killing him. Despite his physical absence, he delivers television talks every week. In his address about the attack on the Israeli military base, Hassan Nasrala said it was retaliation for the assassination of the top commander of the Fuad Sukr organization. At the same time he revealed that the “answer” was delayed for various reasons, including the massive military mobilisation of Israel and the US. He added that Hezbollah decided not to target areas with civilians. Hezbollah, said Nasrala, did not intend to use precision missiles today, but may use them in the future. “Israel hit only two rocket launchers, but did not hit UAV launchers,” he said.
