The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have launched targeted strikes on buildings in Beirut that they claim are storing Hezbollah missiles. According to a statement released by the IDF, the strikes are aimed at weapons belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organization that were concealed beneath civilian buildings in the Dahiyeh area of Beirut.
The decision to conduct these strikes came shortly after the IDF's Arabic-language spokesperson issued an order on social media for residents of specific southern Beirut neighborhoods to evacuate the vicinity of the identified buildings. The spokesperson provided a map outlining the areas that residents should avoid for their safety.
