Eight Air Force F-15 fighter jets used 85 bunker-buster bombs to kill General Hassan Nasrallah in southern Beirut, Libanon.

The Israeli Air Force F-15 fighter jets of the 69th Squadron took off from Hatzerim Airbase to kill Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut on Friday.

85 of bunker-busting bombs were dropped by the fighter jets on Hezbollah’s underground headquarters in the Dahiyeh suburb of Beirut in the attack, according to the military.

According to an analyst cited by the New York Times, the eight F-15I jets were equipped with at least 15 2,000-pound munitions with an American-made precision guidance system that attaches to bombs.
