“At least one Israeli strike hit Beirut’s southern suburbs early on Wednesday morning, Reuters witnesses said, hours after the United States said it opposed the scope of Israeli attacks in the city amid a rising death toll and fears of wider regional escalation. Reuters witnesses heard two blasts and saw plumes of smoke emerging from two separate neighbourhoods in Beirut’s southern suburbs. It came after Israel issued an evacuation order early on Wednesday that mentioned only one building.” (10/16/24)
