Iran spy's tip-off killed Hezbollah chief

Iranian spy’s intel uncovered Hezbollah leader’s location

In a major development in the ongoing conflict in Lebanon, Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was killed in an airstrike in Beirut. Reports indicate that an Iranian mole provided Israeli authorities with critical information about his whereabouts just hours before the attack. 

According to the French newspaper Le Parisien, the mole informed Israeli officials that Nasrallah was at Hezbollah's underground headquarters in Beirut's southern suburbs for a meeting with top members of the organization.

Lebanese security source also says an Iranian informant tipped off Israel about the whereabouts of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah before his assassination Friday.

Using intelligence from an Iranian mole to ensure his presence before launching the deadly attack, “the Israelis went all out; they didn't want to miss their target," Le Parisien quoted the unnamed Lebanese security source as saying.

According to the source, the Iranian infiltrator informed the Israelis about the imminent arrival of the Shiite leader on Friday afternoon of Friday, a few hours before the strikes.
