Earlier, it was reported that Hezbollah's head was killed in an airstrike, and its successor was also out of touch.

Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, was attacked again.

Yes, five days late local time, several powerful explosions occurred in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

Lebanon's state news agency said there had been a total of six airstrikes near southern Beirut, with the damage still unknown.

Reports said the targets of the airstrike were a building near Beirut's international airport and the old building of the Hezbollah-run "Al-Manar" station.

Shortly before the airstrike, Israeli forces identified several southern Beirut sites as Hezbollah-related facilities and posted a warning on social media that nearby residents should evacuate 500 meters.

Israeli forces, which are also waging a ground war in Lebanon, announced they had found and destroyed a dig by Hezbollah special operations unit Radwan near the northern border.

In the video, the 250-meter-long tunnel has a kitchen and living space, and weapons and food are also prepared.

Israeli forces claim to have killed 440 Hezbollah members since the ground operation.

Hezbollah, which has been under heavy air strikes for days, officially confirmed on the 4th that its supreme leader Nasrallah was killed,
Hashem Safiedin, who was considered the successor to
Nasrala, has also been out of touch since the airstrike, Reuters reported, citing multiple Lebanese security sources.

Hezbollah, on the other hand, claimed to have killed at least 25 Israeli troops since the start of the ground war, repelling Israeli troops crossing the border with artillery fire on the 6th local time.

Tomorrow is the first anniversary of the war, and airstrikes are still continuing in Gaza.

[Reporter]
Yes, at least 18 people were killed and dozens injured in an Israeli airstrike on a mosque in Deir al-Bala, central Gaza.

The mosque that was attacked by airstrikes was used as a refugee shelter, so the number of casualties could increase further.

The Israeli military confirmed the airstrike, saying Hamas command had been set up at the mosque to carry out a precision strike.

In addition, Israeli airstrikes continued in northern Gaza, killing at least 11 people, Al Jazeera reported.

The continuous war is causing more casualties.

Nearly 42,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the outbreak of the war, and more than 1,400 in Lebanon in the past two weeks.
