The Israeli Defense Forces targeted Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in a “precise strike“ Friday on the central headquarters of Hezbollah in Beirut, Lebanon.
IDF spokesperson Rear admiral Daniel Hagari said the headquarters were intentionally built in the heart of the Dahieh in Beirut under residential buildings “as part of Hezbollah’s strategy of using Lebanese people as human shields.“
At least two people were killed and dozens were wounded, Lebanon’s health ministry said.
Video and images show plumes of smoke rising over Beirut following the Israeli strikes. Witnesses say they heard multiple strikes.
