Recent reports have revealed that Israeli spy agencies obtained information about Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr's personal life, including his plans to marry his four mistresses over the phone. This revelation came to light following an investigation by The New York Times into the extent of Israeli intelligence penetration within Hezbollah prior to the assassination of top leader Hassan Nasrallah and other high-ranking members of the Iran-backed group.
In response to a rocket attack in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights that resulted in the deaths of 12 individuals, including schoolchildren, Israel announced the killing of Shukr in Beirut. The United States had long held Shukr responsible for orchestrating the 1983 bombing of a Marine Corps barrack in Lebanon that claimed the lives of 241 American service members.
