Another Mughniyah to head up Hezbollah’s forces in Golan

Share:

golan syria mapHezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah has appointed the young Mustafa Mughniyah (Mugniyeh) to take command of Hezbollah’s forces on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights, according to Al-Watan news site.

But influential Hezbollah members have openly Nasrallah’s decision to appoint Mughniyah as a commander on the Golan front. They reportedly feel that Mustafa has no experience, and since the Golan Heights is such a difficult and sensitive area, they are worried he will make serious mistakes to Hezbollah’s detriment.
They are also upset that Nasrallah appears to be promoting members of the Mughniyah family at their expense.

Mustafa Mughniyah is the son of Imad Mughniyah – a major Hezbollah commander, who was assassinated in Syria in 2008, and the brother of Jihad Mughniyah who was killed in an airstrike in the Syrian Golan in 2015. Both assassinations were attributed to Israel, which denied being behind the killings.

The job involves both fighting to protect Syrian president Assad’s regime, as well as setting up the the infrastructure with which to attack Israel.

Mustafa replaces his older brother, Jihad, who was killed on the Golan Heights, along with some Iranian generals, in a reported Israeli air strike in January of this year.

    Did he attend a ‘Military Academy’ somewhere?? Nothing the men love more than a ‘Chicken Colonel’. :-)))
    By the way. How young is ‘young’??

    1. older then Jihad Mughniya and more of a mistery man like his father- no pics of him available.
      he moved through the ranks of HA including being a member of their elite personal body guard teams.
      all and all he might prove to be a headache till they remove him from the equation as well

    Well during the 2006 war Nassrallah started as a Chief of the war chief but then he lost the position to Imad Mughniahy. There were rumors that he was jealous of imad. if so, then he is trying to get rid of any Mughniahy but appointing them to these sensitive position. I mean really I have to agree with some Hezbollah members how could he appoint somebody who have no experience unless he is committing suicide..

    And what if hizb el shaytan ordered the assasination of Moghnayi, to eliminate a key witness in the Harriri assasination….Mafia style,they coordinate it with the syrian regime in that time and targeted Moghneyi in the center of Damascus…In the center of Damascus means the syrian chabiha or in coordination with the israelis mossad……Then killed his son Jihad, and the third one will follow………

      Very much possible. Zionist Shites can sacrifice some of their own to further their cause. For them their shite goals are much more important than some mere Shites. You need to look down their shite history since its jewistic inception to know. They didn’t even spare the son of Ali. Thus, everything and anything is possible when it comes to Shites!
