President Joe Biden has called the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah a 'measure of justice' for the victims of his decades-long leadership of the militant group. Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli airstrike near Beirut, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. Biden emphasized the U.S.'s support for Israel's right to defend itself while also calling for de-escalation in the broader conflict, which has intensified since the October 7 Hamas attacks. The killing of Nasrallah is seen as a major blow to Hezbollah, a group that has been a key player in regional instability for over 30 years.

Biden says Nasrallah's death is justice for his victims, says de-escalation needs to occur
The Israeli military announced Saturday that an airstrike it launched in Lebanon has killed Hassan Nasrallah, the man who led Hezbollah for more than three decades and built it into a fearsome terrorist organization. Nasrallah was killed Friday when Israel bombed a complex where Hezbollah leadership was meeting near Beirut, Israeli officials said.
