The Israeli military conducted a 'precise' airstrike on Beirut on Thursday, targeting a house in the Souk el-Shoofaat neighborhood, south of the Lebanese capital. The strike was reportedly carried out in response to a request from US President Donald Trump to avoid launching 'large-scale' attacks on Beirut. The Israeli military also claimed that the strike targeted Ali Hussein, the leader of Hezbollah's missile unit, as part of an attempt to assassinate him. However, a US official stated that there is no US ban on Israeli assassinations of Hezbollah leaders, indicating the possibility of further precise strikes. Meanwhile, the US has expressed concern about the potential destruction of buildings in Beirut and has urged Israel to avoid targeting the capital.
يأتي استهداف بيروت بغارة جوية وصفها الجيش الإسرائيلي ب"الدقيقة"، الخميس، تنفيذا على ما يبدو لطلب إدارة الرئيس الأميركي دونالد ترامب بتجنب شن "هجمات كبيرة" على العاصمة اللبنانية، تؤدي إلى "هدم مبان".
أنه نفذ "غارة جوية دقيقة" في بيروت، بينما أفاد مصدر عسكري لبناني "فرانس برس" أن الغارة استهدفت شقة في منطقة الشويفات جنوبي العاصمة. وقالت القناة 13 الإسرائيلية إن الغارة استهدفت علي الحسيني، قائد وحدة الصواريخ في حزب الله، في ما وصفته بأنه "محاولة". وضحت أنه "رغم الانفتاح الأميركي وإبداء تفهم للوضع غير المعتاد الذي نشأ على الحدود الشمالية (لإسرائيل مع لبنان)، فإن رسالة واشنطن الموجهة إلى إسرائيل واضحة: لا لتوجيه ضربات إلى بيروت".
في المقابل، قال مسؤول إسرائيلي إنه لا يوجد حظر أميركي على الاغتيالات الإسرائيلية". التي تستهدف قادة حزب الله اللبناني مؤخرا، وهو ما يشير إلى إمكانية تنفيذ ضربات دقيقة. وأوض المسؤول أن "القيود الأميركية تشمل المباني فقط، أما عمليات الاستهداف الدقيق فهي غير محظورة إذا توفرت الفرصة العملياتية". لكن، وفق القناة 12، بقي الموقف الأميركي حاسما بضرورة عدم استهداف بيروت، إذ "لا نريد رؤية مبان تنهار".
ويكثف الجيش الإسرائيلي هجماته على مناطق متفرقة من لبنان، قائلا إنه يستهدف معاقل لحزب الله، مما أدى إلى مقتل وإصابة الآلاف على مدار الأسابيع الماضية

إسرائيل تأمر بإخلاء مناطق واسعة في جنوب لبنان وتوسع عملياتها العسكريةأصدر الجيش الإسرائيلي أوامر إخلاء لمناطق واسعة في جنوب لبنان، declaring them combat zones ahead of new strikes against Hezbollah, urging residents to move north of the Zahrani River. This is the largest evacuation order since the ceasefire took effect on April 17, covering about 14% of Lebanese territory. The military issued nine evacuation warnings in the past 24 hours, raising fears of a major escalation along the Israel-Lebanon border and potential mass displacement. Earlier Wednesday, Israel struck the city of Tyre, one of the largest cities in southern Lebanon, followed by airstrikes. Residents filmed the attacks in terror. Hezbollah claimed its fighters clashed with Israeli forces and accused Israel of violating the ceasefire. The escalation follows Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's announcement to expand ground operations after Hezbollah drone attacks on Israeli forces and civilians. Many residents, including those already displaced from other parts of southern Lebanon, find themselves without a clear destination.
