Israel carried out air strikes on southern Beirut on Sunday, days after a US-brokered truce. Lebanese media reported that 2 people were killed and at least 17 were injured. The strikes hit apartment buildings in a Hezbollah stronghold. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the attack targeted “terrorist headquarters” in response to projectiles fired into Israel from Lebanon. Hezbollah has not commented on the claim. The attack is the first on Beirut since the recent truce agreement. The strikes have raised concerns about the stability of the ceasefire and wider efforts to reduce tensions in the region.
