Beirut: Israel launched multiple waves of airstrikes on Beirut and its southern suburbs, following earlier strikes that killed at least 29 people and wounded 66 others in the Lebanese capital.
The Israeli military said on Sunday that its warplanes conducted “intelligence-based strikes on Hezbollah command centers” in Beirut’s southern suburbs, targeting areas including Haret Hreik, Burj Barajneh, and Hadath, Xinhua news agency reported.
Local television station al-Jadeed reported 12 airstrikes within half an hour.
Footage shared on social media showed massive black smoke clouds rising above Beirut’s southern suburbs following Sunday’s strikes, which came after Israeli army spokesperson Avichay Adraee warned residents on social media to evacuate several buildings in the area.
