Israel targets Hezbollah intel HQ in Lebanon, Iran says it will not back down

        Israel said it had targeted the intelligence headquarters of Hezbollah in Lebanon overnight and was assessing the damage on Friday (Oct 4) after a series of strikes on senior figures in the group that Iran's Supreme Leader dismissed as counterproductive.
        
        The air attack on Beirut, part of a wider assault that has driven more than 1.2 million Lebanese from their homes, was reported to have targeted the potential successor to the leader of Iran-backed Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, assassinated by Israel a week ago.
        
        Hashem Safieddine's fate was unclear and neither Israel nor Hezbollah have offered any comment.
