The strike in the heart of Lebanon’s capital for first time in years signals that Israel sees ‘no red lines’.
Lebanon has witnessed another bloody 24 hours as relentless Israeli bombardment killed at least 105 people and injured 359 others, according to health officials.
Air attacks were reported across Lebanon on Sunday and overnight into Monday. The targets included a hit in the heart of the capital, Beirut, for the first time in years, signalling further potential escalation towards an all-out war.
While Israel said it attacked dozens of Hezbollah targets, Lebanese officials said the bombardments struck homes and buildings in southern Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley, Baalbek-Hermel governorate and the southern suburbs of Beirut.
Lebanese politicians described the assaults as a “massacre”.
