Beirut, 23 November. Israeli fighter jets raided a building believed to belong to the Shiite Hezbollah organisation in the central part of the Lebanese capital, firing at least four missiles, a Lebanese civil defence official said.
"A residential building was attacked and there are injuries among civilians," he said, adding that "the building collapsed".
Violent explosions rocked Beirut's residential neighborhoods early this morning.
Israeli aircraft remain in the sky and conduct low-altitude flights over the city.
At least four people were killed and 23 injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Lebanese capital, the emergency operations centre at the country's health ministry said.
"The airstrike destroyed an eight-story house. Rescue teams are working at the site of the explosion, clearing the debris. The number of victims may increase," the message posted on the X social networking site said.
