STORYLINE:
An Israeli airstrike hit the Lebanese town of Baadaran in the Chouf district on Friday, killing at least four people, according to health officials.
The strike took place hours after a series of massive explosions caused by Israeli airstrikes levelled multiple buildings and sent clouds of orange and black smoke into the sky in the biggest blasts to hit the Lebanese capital in the past year.
At least six people were killed and dozens were wounded, Lebanon’s health ministry said.
