The past night was marked by a series of military attacks in several Middle Eastern countries. Massive airstrikes by the Israel Defense Forces were recorded in the suburbs of Beirut. According to local sources, the strikes targeted Hezbollah-linked facilities, causing widespread destruction. The exact number of casualties is not yet known, but local media reported civilian casualties.

In addition to Lebanon, the capital of Syria, Damascus, also came under attack from Israeli aircraft. Three attacks were carried out overnight on various sites in the city and its environs. According to preliminary data, several civilians fell victim to the Israeli strikes, which caused outrage on Syrian social networks. The Syrian authorities have so far refrained from making official comments, but local media have already accused Israel of violating the country's sovereignty.

Meanwhile, in Iraq, a US military base located on the territory of Baghdad International Airport was subjected to a missile attack. According to Iraqi sources, the base was fired upon by two missiles, but US air defense forces were able to intercept the threat. There were no casualties or damage, although the situation in the airport area remains tense. A US representative stated that the strike could have targeted not only military facilities, but also diplomatic buildings.

As the conflict escalates, France has sent a warship to the coast of Lebanon. According to French sources, this is a precautionary measure to be able to evacuate French citizens if the situation in Lebanon deteriorates further.
