BEIRUT/JERUSALEM ¨C Hezbollah¡¯s flexible chain of command, together with its extensive tunnel network and a vast arsenal of missiles and weapons it has bolstered over the past year, is helping it endure unprecedented Israeli strikes, three sources familiar with the Lebanese militant group¡¯s operations said.

On Friday, Israel killed the commander who founded and led the group¡¯s elite Radwan force, Ibrahim Aqil.
