The Middle East situation has escalated into a regional confrontation, with Israel fighting on numerous fronts. It is launching ground raids in Gaza’s south and Lebanon’s north.
It also faced a wave of missile attacks from Iran, which backs the Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. A retaliation is expected anytime. Israel has also been conducting airstrikes in Yemen and Syria.
In Beirut, AFP journalists heard multiple explosions overnight and reported some buildings shaking. One of the Israeli strikes hit a Hezbollah rescue facility, a source close to the group told AFP, killing at least six people, according to a Lebanese health ministry toll. A total of 17 overnight air raids had hit Beirut by dawn on Thursday, Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA) reported.
Israel carried out a deadly air raid on Thursday (October 3), in central Beirut after eight ground troops were killed near the Lebanese border, as it traded threats with its arch foe Iran over possible future attacks.
