Lebanese health ministry says 2 killed, 76 wounded in massive Israeli strikes in Beirut suburb
Beirut, Sep 27: Lebanese health ministry on Friday said at least two people were killed and 76 others wounded in massive Israeli strikes in Beirut suburb.
The Israeli military said Friday it struck the central headquarters of Hezbollah in Beirut, where a series of massive explosions leveled multiple buildings and sent clouds of orange and black smoke billowing in the skies in the biggest blasts to hit the Lebanese capital in the past year.
At least two people were killed and dozens were wounded, Lebanon's health ministry said.
Three major Israeli TV channels said Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was the target of the strikes in Beirut's southern suburbs. The unsourced reports could not immediately be confirmed by The Associated Press, and the army declined comment. But given the size and timing of the blasts, there were strong indications that a senior leader may have been inside the buildings struck.
