The publication Al Arabiya, citing sources, writes that Safi Ad-Din died on October 4 on Friday after a blow to the bunker in the southern suburb of Beirut, where he was with his assistants, field commanders and Iranian officers.
“A source in the Lebanese Security Services previously confirmed that contact with Hezbollah leader Hamema Safi Ad-Din was interrupted after a Friday raid,” Al Arabiya reports. “Hezbollah is trying to get to the underground headquarters, which has become an object of attack, but each time Israel returns to conduct raids in this area, trying to interfere with any rescue efforts.” The publication also reports that ad-Din was accompanied by the head of the Hezbollah intelligence, known as Hajj Murtada.
“Although there is still no formal confirmation of the liquidation of Hashema Safi ad-Din, I have a deep conviction that he was destroyed along with everyone who was in the buried bunker of the reconnaissance structures and security service“ Hezbollah, ”says the Israeli military observer David Sharp.
-Sources close to the militants claim that Safi ad-Din did not get in touch on October 4. I can confidently say that there were many managers of the highest and middle level of the organization.
It is believed that no one could survive. The Arab media disseminate the information that the commander of the special forces of the Al-KudS forces corps of the Islamic Revolution (Xirir-the elite units of the Iran of the Army), Major General Ismail Kaani, died there. He took this post instead of Kasem Suleimani destroyed in 2020. ” According to other sources, as David Sharp says, Kaani was arrested for issuing secret information. One way or another, Ismail Kaani also disappeared from the connection and does not give news of himself.

“Today there is confidence in 99 %that Safi ad-Din is dead,” the former employee of the special services and police of Israel, a specialist in security issues, Sergei Migdal, claims in a conversation with Novo-Europe. - The bunker was located under a multi -storey building, which was completely destroyed by a air strike. Apparently, it was the Hezbollah intelligence headquarters. The head of this unit Hajj Murtada died there. Unfortunately, there are no other confirmations of these liquidations. After all, Hezbollah stopped talking about her dead members, even about high -ranking. At the same time, Israeli drones are circling over the place where the bunker was located, which do not allow rescue work. ”
According to Sergei Migdal, Iranian sources say that the first deputy head of KSIR Ismail Kaani was supposed to be in Lebanon on Friday, where he planned to meet with the leadership of Hezbollah.
Kaani Deputy Ksir Iraj Masjedi said that Major General Ismail Kaani is in perfect order. “Many of us are wondering what happened to General Kaani,” said Iraj Masjedi. - He is healthy and is engaged in work. Some are asked to make a statement. For what? This is not necessary. "
David Sharp believes that Israeli intelligence had accurate information about the movements of the Safi Ad-Din, as well as data on the location of the bunker, where he will meet with accomplices.
According to David Sharp, more than 70 aviation bombs, including special ammunition that break through concrete, could be reset on the underground headquarters.
According to David Sharp, the official deputy liquidated head of Hezbollah, Sheikh Noim Kassem remains. He was the only top of the organization with a statement after the destruction of his leader. There is a specific democracy in the terrorist organization and the election elections are held. True, the decision is made with the active participation of the Iranian authorities.
“There is information that Hezbollah will not choose a new leader at all, but will begin to manage collectively, around its most high -ranking leaders,” says Sergey Migdal. “So, according to rumors, he refused to lead the organization with a cassemer and decided to go to Tehran to engage in theology.”

Sergei Migdal claims that Israeli aviation prohibits Iranian transport aircraft to land in Lebanon and Syria. This is one of the important signs of the approaching response of Israel on Iran. Our interlocutor is convinced that the operation against Tehran is now coordinated with the United States. “Israel is preparing a large -scale campaign to destroy the military and economic potential of the Iranian state,” Migdal believes. - Now there is a moment when Israel has enough legitimation for such a step. The preparation and accumulation of forces are underway. Currently, Israeli military vessels and submarines are relocated from the Red Sea to Arabia. New corvettes can run eight cruise missiles at a time. These missiles have a range of one and a half thousand kilometers and from the northwestern part of the Indian Ocean it can get to anywhere in Iran. Together with the fleet, the attack will begin the attack by the IDF (Israeli Defense Army). ”
Sergei Migdal explains that Iran can fir with missiles not only Israel, but also in neighboring countries of the US military bases, as well as oil terminals of Oman, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and other United States allies. For this, it is planned to use missiles that have a range of 300-900 kilometers. In this case, the Americans will have to intervene in one way or another. Together with the IDF, they can hit and arrange the “carousel” of Iran’s shelling, destroying air defense systems, military facilities, airfields and missile potential.
