Hello, im sarah campbell. Israels campaign of Air Strikes on hezbollah targets in lebanon appears to be widening, with attacks in the capital, the east and the south. These are live pictures from the lebanese capital where plumes of smoke can be seen rising. The lebanese Health Ministry said 37 people were killed in beirut and in Southern Lebanon over the past 2a hours. This large explosion was seen near beirut s international airport, which borders the suburb of dahieh, a Hezbollah Stronghold which has been a continuing target for israeli attacks. Reports citing israeli officials said a key target had been hashem safieddine, hezbollah s presumed leader In Waiting and cousin of its late chief, hassan nasrallah. Elsewhere, in the occupied west bank, the Israeli Military says it has killed a senior hamas figure, following a strike on a Refugee Camp in the city of tulkarm. Palestinian health officials say at least 18 people were killed in the strike on a cafe. Explosions could also be hea
Hezbollah is part of the political game here in lebanon. It is almost the only party that is, you know, armed and lebanon and also has representation in the parliament. But has engaged in fights and conflict with israel since it started in 19805 until this latest confrontation that we are living these days. Frank, a lot of people i think certainly after the attack we saw a couple of nights ago, that unprecedented attack in terms of Scale And Size that iran launched on israel. One question which people are asking is why did iran Attack Israel and will israel now Attack Iran . Ok, so this really goes back to april the 1st, when the israeli Air Force carried out an airstrike on Irans Consulate in damascus, killing a number of Iranian Revolutionary Guards officers, including allegedly the man who was coordinating the flow of arms from iran through syria to hezbollah in lebanon. And that was an attack on a diplomatic premise, the international outrage was pretty muted. Iran said it would re
Was watching the action. I was wondering if maybe before the march, united mode of taking three all but when you factor in that they were to neale ahead, where does this leave them and leave the manager? leave them and leave the manager? leave them and leave the manauer? h. . ,. , manager? it s a saga that will continue. manager? it s a saga that will continue, the manager? it s a saga that will continue, the spit manager? it s a saga that will continue, the spit collision. Continue, the spit collision around the manager erik ten hag, he will be under pressure after this result, the bbc was told after that pretty desperate three zero defeat, that he would remain in position for the next two games at least, one of those here at porto and the next on sunday at aston villa, they threw away that lead tonight so it won t be enough for erik ten hag to feel safe, his third season at old trafford with that international break looming, a lot of attention will be focused on that match a
And this attack came with no warning. We went to inspect the damage. A residential building near the lebanese parliament. Beirut appears increasingly under threat. This is where an emergency response group linked to hezbollah operated, now gone. There were just emergency service workers. This is the truth. We only saw them helping people out, says mustafa, who lives on the tenth floor of the building hit. The damage in this building gives you a sense of the power of this attack, and they ve been cleaning up the rubble here, but we can still see some surgical masks and gloves and bandages as well. And you can probably hear the sound of drones flying overhead. This is a densely populated district here in central beirut. Hasan, who s a teacher, has lived in this neighbourhood for 2h years. There was no hezbollah presence here, military or civilian, he tells me. Hezbollah wasn t present here. These are some of the victims of the attack. They include one rescue officer and two paramedics. T
