Israeli Airstrikes in Beirut Kill 15 as Diplomatic Efforts for Cease-Fire Intensify

 

At least 15 people were killed and dozens injured following Israeli airstrikes in central Beirut, marking one of the most severe escalations in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. The strikes targeted what Israeli authorities described as Hezbollah command centers and weapons depots, though the attacks also caused extensive damage to residential areas.

Lebanese officials condemned the strikes as a violation of sovereignty and accused Israel of targeting civilian infrastructure.

As the violence escalates, international diplomats, including representatives from the United Nations and the United States, are intensifying efforts to broker a cease-fire. “The situation is spiraling out of control, and we urge all parties to exercise maximum restraint,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres in a statement.

Humanitarian organizations have raised alarm over the deteriorating conditions for civilians in Beirut, where thousands are now displaced. Calls for a humanitarian corridor to deliver aid and evacuate vulnerable populations are growing louder as the conflict risks spilling over into a broader regional war.
