Beirut/Jerusalem | Israel bombed central Beirut on Thursday, killing at least six people, after its forces suffered their deadliest day on the Lebanese front in a year of clashes with Iran-backed Hezbollah.
Israel said it conducted a precise airstrike on Beirut. Reuters witnesses reported hearing a massive blast, and a security source said it targeted a building in the central district of Bachoura, near parliament, the closest an Israeli strike has come to the centre of Lebanon’s capital.
