Hezbollah’s Nasrallah says group will respond to Israel’s killing of top commander

The leader of Lebanese group Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, vowed on Thursday to respond to Israel’s killing of the group’s most senior military commander in a strike on the Lebanese capital’s southern suburbs this week.

Nasrallah, speaking at the funeral of the slain commander Fuad Shukr, said unnamed countries had asked Hezbollah not to retaliate, but he said the group was exploring a “real, studied” response.
