A massive Israeli airstrike in central Beirut killed 15 people, including civilians, and injured over 60, Lebanese officials confirmed. The strike, targeting senior Hezbollah official Mohammed Haydar, destroyed an eight-story residential building in the Basta district. Residents questioned Israel’s actions, calling it indiscriminate and inhumane. Emergency workers continue to recover bodies from the rubble. Israel intensified its campaign against Hezbollah amid diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire. Lebanese authorities reported over 3,500 deaths and 1 million displaced due to ongoing conflict. Talks for a truce under UN Resolution 1701 continue, with disagreement over withdrawal timelines and monitoring mechanisms.
