The repercussions of recent assassinations within Hezbollah may take time to fully manifest. Historically, targeting the group's leaders has not provided Israel with a significant strategic advantage, nor has it dealt a decisive blow to Hezbollah's operations. In 1992, Israeli media hailed the assassination of Abbas al-Musawi, then the secretary general of Hezbollah, who was killed when Israeli helicopters struck his convoy. At that time, analysts speculated that Musawi's death could signal the potential downfall of Hezbollah, which had been established a decade earlier following Israel's invasion of Lebanon. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen whether the current wave of targeted killings will yield different results or if Hezbollah will continue to adapt and persist as it has in the past.
