For more than 60 days, Lebanese have watched stunned as Israeli strikes smashed into buildings, raising giant explosions and palls of smoke in the heart of the capital and other cities

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Wednesday that Tehran reserves the right to react to Israeli airstrikes last month on Iran but is also taking account of other developments in the region.

A 60-day cease-fire suspends the 13-month war between Israel and Hezbollah after a new wave of Israeli airstrikes hit Beirut, its suburbs and other Lebanese regions Tuesday.

Israeli airstrikes shake Beirut moments after Biden says Israel and Hezbollah agreed to ceasefire deal

Israeli airstrikes are hitting Lebanon with airstrikes as negotiations progress toward a ceasefire between the country and Lebanon-based Hezbollah militants.

The strikes, which destroyed an eight-story building and left a crater in the ground, were the fourth in Beirut in less than a week.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said on Thursday that it carried out airstrikes on a Hezbollah facility where the militant group stores mid-range rockets in southern Lebanon after both sides accused each other of breaching the ceasefire that aims to halt over a year of fighting.
