Alongside its offensive in Gaza, the Israeli army is fighting Hezbollah in Lebanon. On Sunday, the pro-Iranian movement announced the death, in an airstrike in central Beirut, of its main spokesperson, Mohammad Afif.
According to the Lebanese Ministry of Health, at least six people were killed on Sunday in two strikes in the center of Beirut.
The Lebanese news agency ANI also reported a “violent” Israeli strike targeting the village of Khiam (south), on the outskirts of which Hezbollah claimed three attacks against Israeli soldiers.
The Israeli army, for its part, said it had bombed the southern suburbs of Beirut, located near the international airport, and the south of the country, including the thousand-year-old city of Tyre.
In several villages surrounding this city, 11 people were killed and 48 others injured in Israeli raids on Sunday, according to the Health Ministry.
According to the Israeli army, the Lebanese Islamist movement fired around twenty projectiles towards the western Galilee and the Bay of Haifa, in northern Israel. Some were intercepted.
