Mohammed Afif killed in first Israeli airstrike on central Beirut in more than a month, official says
Sunday’s strike by Israel killed one person – reported to be Hezbollah spokesperson Mohammed Afif – and injured three, according to the Lebanon health ministry.
AFP cited the official National News Agency as reporting that the strike by “enemy aircraft” caused “great destruction”, with an unspecified number of people “trapped under the rubble” in Ras al-Nabaa.
The NNA said “one of the residents of a neighbouring building had received a warning call urging evacuation but it was not taken seriously”.
