Late on October 2, Israeli military aircraft pounded various districts in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital city Beirut during an aerial operation.

Fighter jets and drones of the Israeli regime’s army bombarded the southern suburbs of Beirut 17 times early Thursday morning. The targets included the neighborhoods of Al-Bashoura, Al-Hadath, Al-Amerikan, Shiyah, Saint Teres, Haret Hreik, Burj El-Barajneh, the intersection of Al-Kafaat, and the streets named after Martyr Qaiq School, Mohsen Saleem, and previous Radio Nour.

According to local media reports, in the strikes at Al-Bashoura, a building belonging to the Civil Defense Center under the Islamic Health Authority was targeted with phosphorus bombs, resulting in the martyrdom of seven people, including the head of the civil defense of Beirut, and injuring six civilians.

Spokesperson for the Israeli army Admiral Daniel Hagari confirmed that the Israeli air force carried out these attacks, and said that precise strikes were conducted in Beirut, with further details to be announced later.

Given the fact that the Israeli military targeted the office of representative of the Hezbollah faction in the Lebanese Parliament Amin Shari, it is probable that the assassination of the Lebanese resistance officials was among the objectives of those attacks.

The Israeli regime’s officials aim to create a wave of displacement in Lebanon by destroying buildings and public facilities, intending to halt the Lebanese resistance’s retaliatory strikes from the southern Lebanon at the northern occupied Palestine front; therefore, the regime resorts to assassinating commanders and senior members of Hezbollah.
