Israeli airstrike hits Beirut suburb despite ceasefire with Hezbollah

Army spokesperson says storage sites housing militant group's missiles were destroyed in Dahiyeh in south of the city

Israel conducted an airstrike on a residential neighbourhood of Dahiyeh in the southern suburbs of Beirut on Sunday afternoon despite a November ceasefire that officially ended fighting with the militant group Hezbollah.

Videos showed three bombs hitting a building in Dahiyeh and rescue crews working to extinguish blazes after the blast; however, no casualties were reported. The Israeli military issued an evacuation warning before the bombing, prompting panic as residents fled the area.
