STORYLINE:
Smoke was rising over Beirut’s skyline late on Friday after the Israeli military said it struck the central headquarters of Hezbollah in the Lebanese capital.
A series of massive explosions levelled multiple buildings and sent clouds of orange and black smoke billowing in the skies in the biggest blasts to hit the city in the past year.
At least two people were killed and dozens were wounded, Lebanon’s health ministry said.
Israel’s three main TV channels all flashed headlines that Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah was the target of the strike. But the unsourced reports could not immediately be confirmed.
The Israeli army had no comment on the reports that Nasrallah was the target. But given the size and timing of the blast, there were strong indications that a high-value target was inside the building at the time.
