On a recent afternoon, at 3.15 p.m. local time, the Lebanese state-run National News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes carried out an airstrike in Beirut's southern suburbs. The attack targeted an apartment in a 10-story building located near a busy intersection in the Al-Qaim neighborhood, known as Dahiyeh.

According to CNN's geolocation, the strike occurred in Haret Hreik, a densely populated area within Dahiyeh. This neighborhood is known for its strong Hezbollah presence and serves as a base for much of the group's leadership.
