Israeli bombardment targeted some of Beirut’s southern suburbs on Saturday, shortly after forced evacuation orders.
Lebanese media said that several buildings have been damaged, including ones in Haret Hreik – a frequent target by the Israeli army over the course of the past few months, since it began its intensification of attacks on Lebanon.
Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency (NNA) said “the enemy” carried out three air raids, including one near Haret Hreik.
“The first strike near Haret Hreik destroyed buildings and caused damage in the area,” it said.
Strikes also hit other parts of Lebanon on Saturday, L’Orient Today and NNA reported, including Western Bekaa, Majdel Zoun, Nabatieh’s Sir al-Gharbiya, and Alma el-Chaab in the country’s south.
Israeli forces also targeted the Gaza Strip, killing several Palestinians and injuring scores more. Three people were also reported to have been killed by Israeli strikes in Beit Lahia earlier this morning.
At least five Palestinians were killed in the southernmost city of Rafah. Meanwhile, Israeli forces also carried out the destruction of several residential buildings in Jabalia, which has been under siege for over one month.
