Israel’s devastating assault on Lebanon rages on, killing more than 25 people in the capital Beirut and in southern and eastern Lebanon, a punishing front in the wider war launched by the United States and Israel on Iran.

The Lebanese Ministry of Public Health said an Israeli strike earlier on today hit a car in Jnah, a coastal neighborhood in southwestern Beirut, and killed one person.

An Israeli strike also hit an apartment in the Nabaa neighborhood, home to a sizable Armenian community, leaving it engulfed in flames, with no casualties immediately reported.

It was the first time this area has been struck in this conflict or during the 2024 war between Hezbollah and Israel.

A total of 687 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on Lebanon in just less than two weeks, including 98 children. More than 800,000 people have also been forcibly displaced by Israeli attacks.
