Fuad Shukr, a top Hezbollah commander whom Israel said it killed in an airstrike in Beirut on Tuesday, has been one of the group's leading military figures since it was established by Iran's Revolutionary Guards more than four decades ago. Israel said Shukr, believed to be in his 60s, was Hezbollah's most senior military commander and adviser to leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah for planning and directing wartime operations.   Shukr was part of the generation of Lebanese Shi'ites who founded Hezbollah following the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982, and a comrade of the group's late military commander Imad Mughniyeh, who was assassinated in Damascus in 2008, Hezbollah sources said.
