Israel says targeted Hezbollah chief of staff in Beirut strike

BEIRUT: Israel said it had carried out an air strike Sunday targeting Hezbollah’s chief of staff in Beirut, leaving a smoking hole in the side of an apartment building and debris scattered in the street, according to AFP journalists. Lebanon’s health ministry reported at least one person killed in the strike, and 21 people wounded, calling it a “preliminary toll.” The strike took place in Beirut’s southern suburbs, a densely populated area where Hezbollah holds sway, and caused “injuries and significant damage,” according to Lebanon’s official National News Agency (NNA).
