Hassan Jafar Qassir, the son-in-law of late Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in an Israeli strike that hit the Mazzeh Western Villas neighborhood of the Syrian capital, Damascus, on October 2, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.
The Mezzeh district is home to Syrian security and military headquarters as well as embassies and United Nations agencies.
The London-based pro-opposition monitoring group said that the Israeli strike hit the first floor of a three-story building frequented by Hezbollah and Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) members, killing Hassan along with two others, another Lebanese national and a Syrian. It added that at least four others were wounded, noting that their identities remain unknown.
Citing a Syrian military official, the Syrian Arab News Agency reported that three civilians were killed and three others were wounded in the Israeli strike.
The deadly strike was launched from the direction of the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, according to the unnamed official.
Neither Hezbollah or the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have yet confirmed that Hassan was among those killed in the strike on Damascus.
Hassan is the brother of Muhammad Jafar Qassir, who was the head of Hezbollah’s Unit 4400. The unit is allegedly tasked with delivering weapons from Iran and to Lebanon. Muhammad was killed in a strike in the Lebanese capital, Beirut, two days earlier alongside the commander of the Imam Hossein Division, an Iran-backed armed faction which operates alongside Hezbollah, according to the IDF.
It’s worth noting that Hassan’s father-in-law Nasrallah was killed in a violent Israeli strike that hit the southern suburbs of Beirut on September 27.
Israel has significantly escalated its attacks on Syria since the outbreak of the war in the Palestinian enclave of the Gaza Strip, targeting Syrian military sites as well as personnel of the IRGC, Hezbollah and other factions of the so-called Axis of Resistance.

it sounds like this is personal to the israeli diaper forces. hezbollah’s 2006 defeat of the israeli diaper forces was a memory that will never be erased. made worse by the fact that 2006 redux is now here. they could pinpoint nasrallah and kill him…but they somehow missed october 7th, involving over 1000 hamas guys? oookaaayy
oct 7 was a hoax and a excuse to start an armed conflict on palestinian and lebanese, syrian against the will of the people of this world.
does hezbollah still exist? or is israel training on random targets, so that they are now killing relatives of deceased hezbollah commanders, when there are no real commanders left?
does anyone here notice that israel always knows exactly where hezb & iranian military leaders &relatives are + they know even the floor & the rooms they are in. why does iran &hezb not see that they are infiltrated.
i tell you again: current iranian president pezeskian is an israeli agent (!!!), installed after israel killed legitimate iranian president in deadly helicopter sabotage crash.wake up folks!! please anyone here tell it to the iranian& lebanese people before more tragic incidents and mayhem unfolds !!!
that’s nonsense.
it’s. a fact that the jews have a formidable spy network throughout the me. and therein lies the answer, possibly also infiltrated forces. but. mostly jews pretending to be say lebanese and operating in their natural surroundings reporting back to the jews in mossad and so on!
they like to brag about their intelligence services, but in truth they’re being helped with the full power of us/uk/german services. they’re all dedicating their technologies, surveillance satellites, signals intelligence, data analysts and local assets to serve israel
it looks like israel is starting a high intensity bombing campaign in central beirut. like many have pointed out: the idf is at a disadvantage fighting assymetrically on the ground. and thus they will conduct a bombing campaign not unlike what they did in gaza, which included limited raids in between a (scorch earth) bombing campaign. as of right now, there is nothing left standing in gaza. and aside from the houthis and iraqi militias, arabs aren’t doing a thing about it except lip service.
go to aljazeera.com to see some of the devastation that is already unfolding in central beirut.
what “arabs” are going to do something about it? the arab states are controlled by the us, and have been since nasser.
there is a mole in iran imtelligence and hezbollah who has given all intelligence of movement to idf and mossad in last 16 years. look like hezbollah has missed this and iran also. now hezbollah has to look into it very deeply and also iran intellegence. . and yes new iran president is not tough he is still betting on us and eu that they will bring zionist down and stop thier carzy attack . iran new president should not be trusted he should be kept out of khmeni irgc inner circle .
the son in law of the leader of “jewsbollah” was killed, what a surprise!
