At least one killed and 68 wounded in Israel's strike on Beirut

At least one person was killed and 68 others wounded, including five who are in critical condition, in Israel’s strike on a senior Hezbollah commander in a southern Beirut suburb, Lebanon’s public health ministry said.

Hezbollah is also making its first statements on the strike.

“The Israeli enemy has committed a great stupid act in size, timing and circumstances by targeting an entirely civilian area,” Hezbollah official Ali Ammar told Al-Manar TV. “The Israeli enemy will pay a price for this sooner or later.”
