A source close to Lebanon’s Hezbollah told AFP two people were killed in Tuesday’s Israeli strike on the southern Beirut suburbs.

“Two people were killed in the Israeli strike”, said the source requesting anonymity after earlier saying the target was a “leading commander” of the group.

The strike came days after Israel vowed to retaliate over Saturday’s deadly attack on the annexed Golan Heights that killed 12 children blamed on the Iran-backed Hezbollah. The group had denied any involvement.
