An Israeli airstrike in Beirut’s Bachoura neighborhood killed at least nine people and injured 14 others overnight, Lebanon’s Health Ministry said Thursday. It was the second and deadliest airstrike in the capital since Israel’s conflict with Hezbollah began.

At least six people have been killed and eight wounded in an Israeli air strike on a building in central Beirut, Lebanese officials have said. The multi-storey block in Bachoura housed a Hezbollah-affiliated health centre, which Israel's military said was hit in a "precision" attack.
