22 Lebanese citizens were martyred, and 117 others were injured, as a result of a Zionist air raid that targeted the Lebanese capital Beirut late Thursday, in a third attack on the capital since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon, after the targeting of Cola and Al-Bashoura areas.

The occupation army carried out its aggression on Beirut through two raids, the first of which targeted the Al-Nuwairi area, while the second targeted the Al-Basta neighborhood.

In Al-Nuwairi, the Israeli raid targeted the 3rd floor of an 8-storey building, where a fire broke out on one of the floors. Following the raid, civil defense teams worked to rescue those trapped on the upper floors of the building.

The second raid targeted a 4-storey building in the Basta neighborhood, destroying it completely.

The Public Health Emergency Operations Center of the Ministry of Public Health issued a statement announcing that the Israeli enemy’s attacks on Beirut this evening, according to an updated toll, resulted in the martyrdom of 22 people and the injury of 117 others.

The “Israeli” enemy went ahead with its barbaric aggression against Lebanon on Thursday, day 18^th, with many air strikes targeting several areas across south Lebanon, Bekaa and Beirut’s southern suburb, Dahiyeh.
