At least 22 killed in deadliest Israeli airstrikes on central Beirut since start of war

According to multiple sources, Israeli air strikes on central Beirut resulted in a death toll of at least 22 people and injured 117 others, as confirmed by Lebanon's Ministry of Public Health. The strikes were reported to have occurred in a densely populated area where displaced residents had been sheltering after weeks of intense Israeli bombardments near the city. Some reports suggest that the target of the strikes was a senior Hezbollah figure, specifically Wafiq Safa, the brother-in-law of Hassan Nasrallah.
