20.04.2025Day Three Lebanese Soldiers Die as Israel Eliminates Hezbollah Commander
Easter religious messages from Patriarch Al-Rahi and other leaders became platforms for political statements about weapons control, emphasizing only official state forces should protect Lebanon. President Aoun reinforced this message from Bkerke, declaring "Lebanon's resurrection train has departed."

Tragedy struck when an ammunition explosion in a Lebanese Army vehicle killed three soldiers in Nabatieh, with President Aoun offering condolences. This occurred as the army announced foiling a rocket attack against Israel and seizing weapons.

Israeli forces escalated operations, announcing the elimination of Hussein Ali Nasr, deputy commander of Hezbollah's Unit 4400, claiming he used Beirut airport for weapons transfers. Israeli spokesperson Adrei later announced additional strikes against rocket platforms and military infrastructure in Nabatieh.

International developments included Ukraine-Russia prisoner exchange, US-Iran nuclear talks progressing to a third round, and Pope Francis calling for an end to the "tragic and shameful" situation in Gaza.
