Fuád Šukr

Fuád Šukr was a high-ranking military commander of the Lebanese militant group Hizballáh, known for his role in the organization's operations against Israel. He gained notoriety during the recent escalations in conflict between Hizballáh and Israeli forces, ultimately becoming the first senior Hizballáh leader to be killed in cross-border clashes following the outbreak of war in Gaza in October 2023. His death marked a significant event in the ongoing tensions in the region, leading to a broader conflict that prompted calls for ceasefire agreements and discussions about the disarmament of Hizballáh.
