Hezbollah claims that Israel carried out on Sunday (January 18) a strike on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights, killing a prominent Hezbollah fighter, a senior Iranian general, and five other Hezbollah members.
Israel has neither confirmed nor denied its role in the strike. The prominent fighter killed, Jihad Mughniyeh, was the son of Imad Mughniyeh, a top Hezbollah operative widely considered to have built Hezbollah's military operations infrastructure and the second most revered figure inside Hezbollah.
He was assassinated in 2008 in Damascus in a bombing that Hezbollah says was carried out by Israel's Mossad spy agency. Thousands of mourners marched in a Beirut funeral procession Monday for Jihad Mughniyeh, chanting "Death to Israel."
