IAF strikes Hezbollah targets in Beirut's Dahiyeh
The IDF noted that the strike on targets entrenched in a civilian area had been carried out based on precise intelligence information.
Israel Air Force warplanes struck Hezbollah weapons cachets, command centers, and other terror infrastructure in the southern suburbs of Dahiyeh in Beirut, the military said on Wednesday.
The IDF noted that the strike on targets entrenched in a civilian area had been carried out based on precise intelligence information. The military further added that prior to the strike, steps had been taken to prevent civilian harm, including using surveillance, precise munitions, and issuing evacuation warnings.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Hezbollah-affiliated Al Mayadeen news outlet said that several buildings in Beirut's southern suburbs had been targeted.
IDF issues evacuation warnings
Shortly before the reported strikes, IDF Arabic Spokesperson Avichay Adraee issued an evacuation warning for residents of some buildings in Beirut's southern suburb in a Wednesday post on X/Twitter.
"You are located near Hezbollah facilities and interests, against which the IDF will act forcefully in the near future," the post read.
"For your safety and the safety of your family members, you must evacuate these buildings and those adjacent to them immediately and stay away from them for a distance of no less than 500 meters," the post continued.
