3 killed, over 30 hurt by Israeli strikes on Tyre

Three people were killed and over 30 injured in several Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon's southern port city of Tyre, the health ministry said.

The ministry said that this toll is preliminary, as rescue workers were searching for people trapped under rubble.

The Israeli army did not issue an evacuation warning before the strikes. They hit several locations in Tyre and caused extensive damage, according to Lebanon’s state media.

Following the attacks, the Israeli army said it targeted Hezbollah “intelligence and command and control complexes” that operated in Tyre.

Since late October, Israeli airstrikes have repeatedly struck the city, which is known for its UNESCO World Heritage archaeological sites.
