Israeli Airstrike Destroys Building in Beirut

An Israeli bombing caused the collapse of a ten-story residential building in the Tayouneh neighborhood of Beirut, causing panic among residents. The Lebanese National News Agency reported that Israeli fighter jets attacked and completely destroyed the building without any information on possible fatalities.

Images released showed the moment of the bombing impact, after which the building collapsed in just over a second. Neighbors fled the area, causing a new wave of panic in Beirut, a city that has been attacked several times since September.

The most recent and deadly attacks occurred in October, with at least 22 deaths in the Basta and Ras al Nabaa districts. Most of the bombings have been concentrated in the southern suburbs of Beirut, especially in Dahye, where Israel claims that Hezbollah stores weapons and funds for its operations.

On the same day, Israeli bombings affected the Ghobeiry neighborhood in Dahye, which is why the area has emptied almost completely due to the intensity of the attacks. Since the outbreak of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, more than 2,500 people have died, the majority in the last month, while more than 1.2 million have had to leave their homes to escape the violence.
