Hezbollah's leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has vowed a retaliatory response against Israel for the killing of their top military commander, Fuad Shukr. The airstrike occurred earlier this week in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital.

Speaking at Shukr's funeral, Nasrallah revealed that some nations had requested Hezbollah refrain from retaliation. However, he indicated that the group was carefully considering a 'real, studied' response.

Hezbollah's intended course of action remains unspecified, but Nasrallah's statements underscore a likely escalation in tensions with Israel.
