Missiles target Beirut as Israel escalates strike on Hezbollah strongholds
Israel-Hezbollah Conflict: At least four missiles were fired in an airstrike targeting Beirut’s Basta neighbourhood early on Saturday, as Israel intensified its military campaign against Hezbollah, several media reports confirm.
The attack resulted in a violent explosion, with witnesses reporting the blast in the Lebanese capital. The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which began a year ago, escalated after Hezbollah launched rockets at northern Israel in support of Hamas at the start of the Gaza war.
Recently, the conflict has intensified with Israel’s airstrikes on southern Lebanon, Beirut’s southern suburbs, and the Bekaa Valley, where many of Hezbollah’s top leaders have been killed. In response, Hezbollah has fired rockets deeper into Israel.
The ongoing violence reflects the growing tensions in the region, with Israel using both airstrikes and ground troops along the border, while Hezbollah retaliates with rocket attacks. The situation remains volatile as both sides continue their military operations.
