Apparently the Biden administration tried to dissuade Israel from carrying out this very airstrike, despite that guy being on our most wanted list for masterminding the Beirut barracks bombing
https://www.axios.com/2024/07/28/us-warned-israel-against-targeting-beirut-hezbollahWith friends like these, who needs Hezbollah?
/e also both Hezbollah and the IDF are confirming that he was killed in the strike. They are also saying the strike killed 2-3 and injured 20-74 (depending on source), which makes it pretty pinpoint accuracy since Beirut is so dense
Probably the same reason that the US puts constraints on the use of US weapons on Russian bases inside Russia. To avoid a potential escalation.
Despite Ukraine knowing exactly where the strikes that recently hit a children's hospital are coming from.
I guess some child killers are worse than others in some peoples opinion.
