At least one person was killed and several were wounded in the Israeli airstrike in the Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp near the Lebanese coastal city of Sidon, according to Lebanon’s state-run news agency.
The National News Agency reports that two missiles struck a building in Ain al-Hilweh, which it says was previously used by a Palestinian security force, and recently was being used as a kitchen.
According to the IDF, the strike targeted a Hamas command center where members of the terror group were gathered.
