Israel-Hamas war latest: Israel carries out attack on Hezbollah headquarters in Beirut
The Israeli military says it carried out a “precise strike” on the central headquarters of Hezbollah in Beirut. The Israeli army spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, said it targeted the main Hezbollah headquarters, located beneath residential buildings. Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV said buildings were reduced to rubble in the blast, so powerful it rattled windows and shook houses some 30 kilometers north of Beirut. Over 700 people have been killed in Lebanon this week, according to Lebanon’s health ministry. Israel has dramatically escalated strikes, saying it is targeting Hezbollah’s military capacities and senior Hezbollah commanders. Lebanon fears carnage like what Gaza has seen since Oct. 7.
