An Israeli airstrike targeted Hezbollah’s chief of staff in Beirut for the first time in months, as confirmed by Israel’s military. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that the attack was aimed at thwarting Hezbollah’s military buildup and was carried out on the recommendation of defense officials. The strike occurred in the Haret Hreik neighborhood, with smoke visible and crowds gathering around the site. There are no immediate reports of casualties, and the strike comes just days before Pope Leo XIV’s scheduled visit to Lebanon.
