At least 2 said killed in Israeli strike on central Beirut
At least two were killed and 11 wounded in an Israeli strike on central Beirut’s Bashoura neighborhood early Thursday, the Lebanese health ministry says in a statement.
The airstrike started a fire in an apartment in a multistory building in the residential Bashoura district, not far from the United Nations headquarters, the prime minister’s office and parliament. Ambulances rushed to the scene.
Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV station says the strike targeted a center of the terror group’s health unit.
There was no warning issued ahead of the strike.
