Israel Hezbollah War: The death toll in Friday’s air strikes in Lebanon’s capital Beirut has risen to 31, including seven women and three children. The country’s Health Minister Firas Abiad gave this information on Saturday. Abiad told reporters here that 68 people were also injured in this attack, of which 15 are hospitalized. According to him, this was the deadliest Israeli air strike since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.

Those killed in this attack by Israel include Hezbollah commander Ibrahim Aqeel and about a dozen members of this terrorist organization. At the time of the attack, all of them were meeting in the basement of a building. The concerned building has also been destroyed in the attack. Aqeel was in charge of Hezbollah’s ‘Radwan Forces’. Abiad said that three Syrian civilians have also been killed in this attack.
