Attack on a Densely Populated Area

Al-Mayadeen TV noted that the strike targeted a heavily populated area, raising concerns over civilian casualties and destruction.

Violation of Ceasefire Agreement?

This marks the second Israeli airstrike on Beirut’s southern suburbs since the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah in November 2024.

Shortly after the first airstrike on Friday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claimed it had targeted a “drone storage facility” belonging to Hezbollah near Beirut.

Despite the ceasefire agreement, tensions between Israel and Hezbollah remain high, with repeated cross-border attacks and airstrikes increasing regional instability.
