Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah vowed to retaliate against Israeli targets abroad to avenge the assassination Imad Mugniyah. Iran’s president said “there are hundreds of thousands, even millions more” Mugniyahs. A Kuwaiti newspaper claimed Mugniyah was planning major terrorist attacks in moderate Arab countries prior to his death.

An unconfirmed Iranian report indicated Hajj Hussein Halil, the deputy director of Hezbollah’s political affairs, was killed in the Damascus car bombing that claimed the life of Imad Muginyah. Clashes are expected in Beirut as Hezbollah will hold a funeral for Mugniyah on the same day of the anniversary of the assassination of Rafik Hariri.
