How Death Strike works
When a model with Death Strike is destroyed by melee damage, before removing it, that model immediately resolves its eligible melee attacks one additional time as part of the same melee.
After those attacks are resolved, remove the model normally.
Death Strike triggers from melee destruction, not from non-melee destruction or self-removal, unless another rule explicitly states otherwise.

A unit or weapon with Death Strike meets the rule's stated condition. When a model with Death Strike is destroyed by melee damage, before removing it, that model immediately resolves its eligible melee attacks one additional time as part of the same melee. Once those steps are complete, play continues normally.
