During a wave of airstrikes in Lebanon overnight, the Israeli Air Force struck a Hezbollah command center in Beirut and gas stations owned by the terror group, the military says.

The Hezbollah headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs was targeted following fresh evacuation warnings for the area.

Elsewhere in Lebanon, the IDF says it hit several Al-Amana gas stations, a fuel distribution company that is owned by Hezbollah and has been under US sanctions since February 2020.

The IDF says the company “serves as a significant economic infrastructure for [Hezbollah’s] terror activity” and is used by the terror group to “refuel trucks transporting weapons and terrorists.”
