TEHRAN – The deputy commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps' Quds Force, who Israeli-affiliated media claimed was killed in a Friday attack on Lebanon, was seen at a meeting with the Leader of the Islamic Revolution on Saturday.

Israeli media had reported that Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Fallah Zadeh was present in the Beirut building targeted in the attack, which killed 37 people.

Previously, the public relations of the IRGC denied all claims by Hebrew media regarding the assassination of Brigadier General Fallah Zadeh. It has, however, been confirmed that 12 members of Hezbollah's elite Ridwan Brigade were martyred during the strike.
