BEIRUT/JERUSALEM (Reuters) – An Israeli airstrike targeted a Hezbollah commander in the southern suburbs of Beirut on Tuesday, two security sources in Lebanon said, as Israel struck the Hezbollah-controlled area of the Lebanese capital for a second consecutive day.
The sources declined to identify who had been targeted in the strike and said his fate was unknown.
The Israeli military said it had carried out a targeted strike in Beirut, giving no details.
The airstrike hit a building in the usually busy Ghobeiry neighbourhood. One of the security sources shared a photo showing damage to the top floor of the five-storey building.
