Fresh round of Israeli raids hit Beirut, several other Lebanese areas

Smoke billows over the southern suburb of Dahiyeh in the south of Lebanon’s capital Beirut following Israeli airstrikes on October 21, 2024.

A fresh round of Israeli airstrikes have hit the suburb of Dahiyeh in the south of Lebanon’s capital Beirut and several areas in the country’s east.

As many as eight attacks struck Dahiyeh on Monday, while other raids targeted the Deir Sarian, Adshit al-Qusayr, and Yahmar areas in the Western Beqaa District.

Elsewhere in Lebanon, the regime attacked the Hazin Village in the Beqaa Valley of the Baalbek-Hermel Province in the country’s north.

An Israeli drone attack was also reported against the town of al-Kharayeb in the southern Lebanese district of Sidon.

The attacks followed a series of overnight raids against Dahiyeh and the cities of Baalbek and Hermel in Baalbek-Hermel as well as other locations across the country, which killed at least 16 people and injured 59 others.

More than 2,460 Lebanese people have been killed since last October, when the regime intensified its deadly aggression against the country.

Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has been responding by launching hundreds of retaliatory strikes against sensitive targets lying across the occupied Palestinian territories as the Israeli forces attempt to advance on southern Lebanese areas.

Most recently, the group targeted the cities of Haifa, Tira Carmel, and Safad, the Israeli military’s Filon base in the nearby illegal settlement of Rosh Pinna, the military’s Hounin and Maale Golani Barracks, the Samson Base, which is a command supply center and regional supply unit, and the Beria Airbase with rocket salvos.

The movement also struck the settlements of Kiryat Shmona, Ya’ara, Shlomi, Adamit, Katzrin, Yiftah, and Misgav Am with similar rocket barrages.

In southern Lebanon, the movement’s fighters targeted groups of the troops in the al-Sadana area in the country’s Tel Aviv-occupied Shebaa Farms, the vicinity of the town of Markaba, the Qalaa Hill in the Blida Village, the vicinity of the Odaisseh Village, and the Kfar Kila Village.

Hezbollah’s air defense unit, meanwhile, confronted an advanced Israeli Hermes-900 drone elsewhere in Lebanon, forcing it to leave the country’s airspace.

The movement has vowed to sustain its retaliatory attacks until the regime ceases its aggression against Lebanon.
