Hezbollah Leader Killed in Syria

A top leader of Hezbollah was killed in a road side explosion, in Syria, according to the Free Syrian Army, and other sources in the country.

Hezbollah has long denied that they are in Syria, aiding the forces of President Assad.

The United States and other countries have repeatedly stated that they are active in the country though.

For awhile, obituaries for Hezbollah members have shown up in Lebanese papers, but they've not listed any locations for the deaths, and barely any reasons.

In August, a funeral was held for another top ranking Hezbollah member.

It is thought that Nassif had been the leader of the Hezbollah forces in Syria.
