Israel bombs ‘dozens of targets’ in Lebanon after Nasrallah’s assassination
Al Jazeera
The Israeli military says it attacked dozens of targets of Hezbollah as fears grow of an all-out war.
Israel’s military says it carried out dozens of air raids across Lebanon targeting Hezbollah after the assassination of the group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah in a southern Beirut suburb.
At least 11 people were killed in an air raid on a house in the town of Ain in the Bekaa Valley in the northeast, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency.
Hezbollah confirmed on Saturday that Nasrallah was killed in an Israeli strike a day earlier in the southern Beirut suburb of Dahiya, dealing a massive blow to the group engaged in fighting with Israel since last October. Hezbollah started firing rockets at Israel in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. The group has set a ceasefire in Gaza as a condition to stop its cross-border attacks.
The Israeli military said in a statement on the Telegram messaging app on Sunday that its air forces attacked “dozens of terrorist targets” in Lebanon in the past few hours, hitting “buildings where weapons and military structures of the organisation were stored”.
Al Jazeera’s Imran Khan, reporting from Marjayoun in southern Lebanon, said a civil defence centre was hit in a small town just outside of the Tyre governorate, killing four people and injuring several others.
