Atrocious Israeli Strikes Leave Seven Dead in Beirut
The deadlier of the two strikes hit the Jnah district, where a targeted assault on a vehicle convoy killed five people and left 21 wounded. The attack ignited multiple cars, triggering a chain of loud blasts audible far beyond the immediate strike zone, the NNA reported.
A separate Israeli strike on a vehicle travelling along the Khaldeh highway claimed two more lives. The intended target was believed to be a senior figure, though authorities were unable to immediately confirm the individual's identity.
Hezbollah subsequently broke its silence, announcing that fighter Mohammed Baqer al-Nabulsi had been killed in the Jnah strike — offering the first confirmed identification of a high-profile casualty from the night's violence.
The bloodshed marks the latest chapter in a rapidly deteriorating security situation along the Lebanon-Israel frontier. Cross-border hostilities reignited on March 2, when Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel for the first time since a ceasefire brokered on November 27, 2024 — a breach that prompted Israel to unleash an intensified wave of airstrikes across southern and eastern Lebanon, a campaign that has shown no signs of abating.
