Hezbollah Faces Leadership Crisis After Assassinations

The recent assassinations of four key leaders within Hezbollah's Jihad Council, including Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, have sent shockwaves through the organization. Military and strategic expert Brigadier General Hassan Jouni emphasized that the impact of these losses cannot be underestimated, as they necessitate a comprehensive restructuring of the party's leadership. Jouni noted that the current leadership is now nearly paralyzed, requiring significant rebuilding to regain operational effectiveness.

The assassinations have severely weakened Hezbollah's chain of command, which is crucial for coordinating military operations against Israel. Jouni expressed concerns about the party's operational and field readiness, stating that while the absence of these leaders will impact strategic planning, the ground forces may still maintain their readiness due to the relatively straightforward nature of their battlefield tactics. He urged Hezbollah to quickly assess the situation and make decisive moves to restore its leadership structure.

As discussions about potential successors to Nasrallah arise, Hashem Safieddine emerges as a prominent candidate. Brigadier General Jouni highlighted Safieddine's strong personality and significant role within the party, suggesting that his leadership could help unify Hezbollah's ranks during this turbulent period.
