Hezbollah’s Decline and Internal Security Concerns

The ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel has unveiled significant vulnerabilities within the organization, leading to the targeted assassinations of key leaders, including Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah and his successor, Ahmad Safieddin, in 2024. A string of high-profile attacks against the group’s senior commanders has dealt a severe blow to Hezbollah’s standing in Lebanese politics and society.

The organization has increasingly resorted to utilizing spies, particularly within its support base and local communities. Lebanese security sources have reported that the Mossad has also established a network of informants to document the outcomes of airstrikes, monitor rescue operations, and confirm their results. Meanwhile, additional suspects in collaboration with Israel have been apprehended by Lebanese authorities.
