Besides being Kharshi's nephew and one of the closest associates of Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem, he is also his personal secretary. "We continue to attack Hezbollah with strength, precision, and determination," said Netanyahu. He also conveyed that several locations in southern Lebanon have been destroyed and that the attacks will continue. "Simultaneously, overnight, the IDF attacked a series of terrorist infrastructures in southern Lebanon: crossings used for transferring thousands of weapons, rockets, and launchers, as well as weapons depots, launchers, and Hezbollah headquarters. We will continue to attack Hezbollah wherever necessary, until we restore full security to the residents of the north," stated Netanyahu. In the announcement regarding the killing of the Hezbollah leader's nephew, the Israeli military wrote that Kharshi played a key role in managing and securing Qassem's office.
