New Israeli strikes in southern Beirut

Official Lebanese media reported four Israeli strikes on southern Beirut, shortly after the Israeli army called on residents to evacuate the area.

"Enemy warplanes carried out two strikes on the southern suburbs, the first targeting the St. Teresa area and the second targeting the Burj al-Barajneh area," Lebanon's National News Agency reported, cited by AFP.

Two of the strikes caused large explosions.

Israeli military spokesman Avichai Adrae issued "an urgent warning to residents of the southern suburbs of Burj al-Barajneh and Hadath" to leave those areas.

"You are near Hezbollah facilities and interests and the IDF (Israeli military) will act against them in the near future," he added in a statement in X. | BGNES
