Hezbollah is bracing itself for a prolonged conflict in southern Lebanon after Israel wiped out its top leadership, including its leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. A new military command is now directing both rocket fire and ground operations, according to two sources familiar with their operations.

Despite facing significant blows from Israeli airstrikes, the Iran-backed group retains a substantial arsenal, including powerful precision missiles. A new operations center was quickly established following Nasrallah's assassination, ensuring fighters in the south can continue their efforts under central command, sources reported.

Hezbollah has yet to name a new leader following these devastating attacks. Although its command structure was briefly disrupted, the group has managed to reorganize and maintain resistance against Israeli incursions, demonstrating its resilience and strategic depth in the ongoing conflict.
