20 September 2024 Beirut attack

On 20 September 2024, Israel launched an air attack that leveled an apartment building in the Dahieh suburb of Beirut, Lebanon. The attack killed at least 45 people, including 16 Hezbollah militants, including commanders Ibrahim Aqil and Ahmed Wehbe. The other victims were civilians, including at least three children and seven women. At least 68 others were injured.

Israel said the strike targeted commanders of Hezbollah's elite Redwan Force command committee which was holding a meeting within the apartment building. Two months earlier, Israel had assassinated another commander, Fuad Shukr, in the then ongoing Israel–Hezbollah conflict.
