A massive Israeli airstrike in central Beirut has left four people dead and 23 injured, destroying an eight-story residential building in the Basta neighbourhood.
Speculation is rife that the strike targeted newly appointed Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem or senior officer Talal Hamiya.
The attack, carried out with five missiles, comes amid heightened tensions following previous strikes on Hezbollah strongholds in Beirut and southern Lebanon.
Lebanese health authorities confirmed the casualties, while search and rescue operations continue.
Israeli authorities have not commented on the strike, fueling rumours surrounding its intended target.
Hezbollah carried out seven targeted attacks against Israeli forces in Khiam, Lebanon, using artillery, rockets, and drones, following Israeli incursions that destroyed residential areas. Lebanon's Bekaa Valley suffered heavy casualties, with 22 civilians killed in airstrikes. Over 3,500 Lebanese lives have been lost since October 2023, amid intensified clashes and air raids. Civilian displacement and destruction highlight the human toll of this growing conflict.

Late Tuesday night, Hezbollah fighters executed a meticulously planned three-phase ambush on Israeli forces near the border town of Markaba in South Lebanon. The initial strike, conducted at 10:00 PM, targeted an advancing Israeli infantry unit with an anti-tank guided missile (ATGM), causing heavy casualties.
When Israeli command dispatched a rescue team to retrieve the wounded and dead, Hezbollah launched a second ATGM strike, further escalating the toll. A third strike at 11:10 PM targeted a second rescue team, leading to additional losses.

In a major address, Hezbollah's new chief, Sheikh Naim Qassem, issued a bold warning to Israel and incoming U.S. President Donald Trump. Qassem declared that Israel can no longer claim any "safe zones," as Hezbollah's drones and missiles can now target every part of the country. He also dismissed Trump’s reelection, asserting it "means nothing" to Hezbollah's commitment to defending Lebanon and confronting Israel’s military actions. Highlighting Hezbollah's long-standing preparations since the 2006 Lebanon war, Qassem emphasised that the group's resistance strategy is unwavering, with no reliance on American politics or diplomacy. This stark message from Hezbollah’s leadership signals a new phase of heightened tensions in the region as both Hezbollah and Israel brace for the possibility of intensified conflict.

Hezbollah’s deputy leader, Naim Qassem, declared readiness to confront Israel if it invades Lebanon, following intensified Israeli airstrikes that killed over 1,300 people and displaced a million. Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant affirmed troops are prepared for a ground offensive, while the IDF plans limited operations in southern Lebanon.
