Nasrallah killed after months of planning
After this attack, israel Defense Force (IDF) Chief of General Staff Herzi Halevi said, "We carried out a precise attack, in which Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was killed. This attack took place at Hezbollah's underground headquarters located in the middle of Beirut, in which other leaders of the terrorist organization were also present."

Intelligence agencies played a big role
According to the report of The New York Times, Israeli intelligence agencies have a very big role in the planning to kill Nasrallah. In the year 2006, there was a war between Hezbollah and israel for a month.
