In a developing situation, another explosion rocked Beirut’s southern suburbs on September 20, sending smoke billowing into the sky. Video footage of the blast has surfaced, capturing the chaos following the incident. In response, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed via a tweet on X that a targeted strike had been conducted in Beirut shortly after the explosion. This latest incident comes in the wake of significant violence that began with a series of explosions involving thousands of pagers and handheld radios used by Hezbollah members across Lebanon on September 17 and 18. Lebanese Health Minister Firas Abiad reported that these prior blasts resulted in at least 37 fatalities and left nearly 2,931 individuals injured. Although Israel has not officially claimed responsibility for the initial explosions, Hezbollah has pointed the finger at Israel, escalating tensions in the region. On September 19, Hezbollah retaliated by launching a new barrage into northern Israel. Walkie-Talkie, Pager Explosions in Lebanon: Israel Asks Residents To Stay Near Shelters To Avoid Possible Hezbollah ‘Retaliation’.
