Footage purports to show the scene of the Israeli airstrike in Beirut a short while ago.

Lebanese media reports claim that an Israeli F-35 carried out the attack, with two missiles.

The strike targeted a building in Beirut’s Dahiyeh suburb, a known Hezbollah stronghold.

The IDF describes the strike as “targeted.”

It marks only the third time that the IDF has carried out airstrikes in Beirut since the beginning of the war.

In July, an Israeli airstrike in Beirut killed Hezbollah’s military chief Fuad Shukr, and before that in January, Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri was killed in an IAF strike in the Lebanese capital.
