AhlulBayt News Agency: The Israeli occupation army unleashed a wave of violent airstrikes on southern Beirut on Wednesday night, October 23, killing and injuring a number of people, Lebanese state media said.
It was one of the most brutal nights in the capital’s southern suburbs since the Israeli aggression against Lebanon started on September 23, 2023.
Lebanese state media reported 17 Israeli raids on Beirut’s southern suburbs last night, with six apartment buildings leveled to the ground and the vacated offices of Al-Mayadeen satellite channel hit.
Six buildings were destroyed around the suburb of Laylaki area in southern Beirut, including a residential complex hit by four Israeli strikes “causing a large fire,” according to the state media.
Several fires lit up the sky over southern Lebanon and black smoke was seen rising from several neighborhoods, with some areas just 500 meters away from the city’s ancient ruins.
Local TV footage showed a massive explosion followed by smaller blasts in Lebanon’s embattled southern suburbs after the Israeli army issued evacuation warnings for the area, where Hezbollah holds sway.
