Lebanese officials say 22 people have been killed and 117 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on central Beirut yesterday evening.
There was no warning issued before the strikes which hit residential buildings in two densely packed neighbourhoods in Bachoura – a small Shia area in the capital.
This is the third time Israel has launched air strikes on the city outside of the suburb of Dahieh, where it has struck repeatedly.
Media outlets, quoting security sources, suggest the apparent target, Wafiq Safa, survived. Safa is a high-ranking Hezbollah official and close ally of Hezbollah’s former long-term leader Hassan Nasrallah.
Neither the Israeli military nor Hezbollah’s media office have commented.
