Israeli airstrikes target Burj al-Barajneh and Hadath overnight
Lebanon's state news agency on Sunday reported a series of overnight Israeli airstrikes on Beirut's southern suburbs, after Israel's army issued fresh evacuation calls.
The official National News Agency said shortly after midnight that Israel had "targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut."
The Israeli army had earlier urged residents of two neighboulrhoods in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital to evacuate their homes.
"You are located near Hezbollah facilities and interests, against which the IDF will operate in the near future," military spokesman Avichay Adraee said in a post on social media platform X, using an acronym for the Israeli army.
The evacuation call included maps showing buildings that would be targeted in Burj al-Barajneh and Hadath.
