An Israeli strike on a building in central Beirut killed Hezbollah’s media relations chief Mohammed Afif, two Lebanese security sources tell Reuters.

The strike was carried out in the Ras al-Naba’a neighborhood in the central part of the Lebanese capital, and not in the Hezbollah stronghold in the southern suburbs.

The IDF did not issue any evacuation warning before the unusual strike.
