BEIRUT, Lebanon — An Israeli airstrike on a residential building near Beirut’s southern suburbs killed at least three Hezbollah members, a security source tells AFP.

The strike “targeted an office used by Hezbollah, killing three members and seriously wounding three others,” while the Israeli army, for its part, announced it had “begun striking Hezbollah terrorist infrastructures in Beirut.”

An AFP photographer says the targeted apartment is located in a neighborhood crowded with shops and commercial establishments, several of which were damaged, adding that armed Hezbollah members set up a security cordon following the strike.
