The Israeli Air Force carried out an airstrike on the Ouzai district, located near Beirut International Airport, a RIA Novosti correspondent reports. According to preliminary data, the attack was aimed at objects that may be associated with the activities of the Lebanese group Hezbollah.

Social media users have been actively sharing videos and photos that are said to have been taken in the immediate Uzai area immediately after the strike. The footage shows flashes and smoke rising in the sky, indicating possible damage from the attack.

It remains unclear what exactly was the target of the strike and how much damage was caused by the attack. There have been no official comments from Lebanese authorities or Israeli representatives.

Hezbollah is a Lebanese Shia organization founded in the 1980s with Iranian support. It combines political and military activities, aiming to protect the interests of Shiites in Lebanon and oppose Israel. Hezbollah's military wing has fought in armed conflicts, including the Syrian Civil War on the side of the government of Bashar al-Assad, and has also clashed periodically with Israel. The political wing is represented in the Lebanese parliament and has significant influence on the country's domestic politics. Although the organization is designated as a terrorist organization by several Western countries, including the United States and the EU, it enjoys support among Lebanese Shiites for its social programs and advocacy for the community.
