Huge news today in Israel:
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and other top commanders in a large-scale airstrike on their underground headquarters in Beirut, Lebanon, on September 27, 2024. This strike, part of Israel’s broader campaign to target Hezbollah’s leadership, marks a significant moment in the ongoing conflict. Nasrallah was killed by bunker-busting bombs dropped on Hezbollah’s main headquarters in the Dahiyeh, a Hezbollah stronghold in southern Beirut. The IDF also targeted Hezbollah’s anti-ship missile sites in the area, further dismantling the group’s military capabilities.
The airstrike, named Operation “New Order,” was carried out based on real-time intelligence after years of tracking Nasrallah and his movements. The attack comes amid rising tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, which has been involved in rocket attacks on Israel since October 2023. In response, the IDF has intensified its efforts to weaken the group’s military infrastructure, while Hezbollah confirmed the death of its leader, vowing continued resistance against Israel. This development has sparked both mourning and celebrations in different parts of the region.

It was a shocking, difficult and yet extraordinary year for the Israel Daily News Podcast! 🎉
From interviewing a South African presidential candidate to engaging in insightful discussions about the world-view on Israel’s hostage situation with former Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev, it’s been a rollercoaster of news, views, teary-eyed script writing sessions, workdays that turned into sunrises and a newfound difficulty in going to sleep…It’s not easy to forget the voices of family members who are still missing loved ones held captive in Gaza.
We’ve stood amid massive Tel Aviv protests against judicial reform and then told the world about it on national TV.
Our on-the-ground coverage of the October 7th massacre in Israel and eventual war in Gaza aimed to bring an unfiltered truth that only an independent source could give.
On the podcast, we have endless time for the endless voices affected by war. We never have to squeeze sound bites in between commercial breaks. And that’s thanks to our dedicated listeners who support the show.
Our host Shanna Fuld hit significant milestones, from being recognized by Avi Issachoroff and Lior Raz for her deep research on the “Ghosts of Beirut” Showtime TV series to being named among the Top 100 Jews of the year.
Achieving the coveted title of the number 1 Israel news podcast and offering exclusive coverage of NYC Mayor Adams’ trip to Israel are moments we are proud of and celebrate together.
As we bid farewell to 2023, my New Year’s wish for all our listeners and viewers is a 2024 filled with continued dedication to news from Israel, curiosity, insight, and a shared commitment to listening to the voices of people without limits or agendas.
