An Israeli airstrike on Hezbollah's "central headquarters" in the Dahieh neighborhood of Beirut has resulted in at least 2 deaths and 76 injuries, according to Lebanese officials. The strikes, which sent plumes of smoke into the sky, occurred three hours ago. While there are reports that Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was the intended target, this remains unconfirmed by Israel. In response, Iran labeled the attack a "dangerous game-changing escalation" and vowed appropriate punishment for the perpetrators. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is returning to Israel early from a US trip following the strike.
