Israel hit Beruit suburbs with airstrikes during the early hours of Sunday morning, Reuters images of the strikes showed.
Additionally, the Hezbollah-run channel Al-Manar reported on the Israeli strikes shortly afterward, stating that Israel had struck Beruit’s suburbs, along with the area of Baalbek, Zrariyeh, and Al-Jamous.
The Reuters images of the strikes surfaced approximately two hours after residents of Lebanon’s southern suburbs were called to evacuate their homes by IDF Arabic Spokesperson Avichay Adraee in an X/Twitter post.
Specifically, Adraee noted that residents in the areas of Burj Al-Barajneh and Hadath should leave their homes and stay at a distance of 500 meters before planned Israel strikes.
“You are located near facilities and interests affiliated with Hezbollah, which the IDF will be targeting in the near future,” Adraee wrote.

Continuous strikes on Beirut suburbs
Israel has conducted several strikes in the area recently and in the last week.
In the early hours of Friday morning, Israel struck Beirut’s suburbs.
The Lebanese outlet later reported that one of its photographers, Ghassan Najjar, and one of its broadcast engineers, Mohammad Reda, were among those killed.
