Lebanon says civilian death toll from Beirut strike that killed Hezbollah commander is now 5
Lebanon’s Health Ministry says the death toll from an Israeli attack yesterday in southern Beirut has risen to five civilians.
The attack targeted top Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr, who oversaw the terror group’s military activities, including allegedly the weekend rocket attack that killed 12 children in the Golan Heights.
Hezbollah has said Shukr was in the targeted building, but civil defense workers were still searching for him under the rubble. The five civilians allegedly killed are two children and three women. Many more were wounded.
