Lebanon says one killed near Beirut, as Israel says it struck IRGC member

An Israeli strike on Hazmieh east of Beirut killed at least one person, Lebanon’s health ministry says, the second strike on the residential Christian area in the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah war.

The Israeli military says around the same time that it had “struck an IRGC Quds Force terrorist in Beirut,” referring to the foreign operations arm of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards.

Hazmieh, which is near Lebanon’s presidential palace, hosts several foreign embassies.
