Reuters. Surveillance footage in Beirut captured the moment an Israeli strike hit the Lebanese capital for the first time on Wednesday (May 6), since a ceasefire was agreed last month.
The strike raised pressure on the ceasefire that had halted Israeli attacks on Beirut, even as Israeli forces remained deployed in areas south of the Litani River and continued to carry out strikes in southern Lebanon.
The location was confirmed by the buildings, football pitches and road layout which matched satellite imagery. The location also matched aftermath footage filmed by Reuters.
The date when the video was filmed was verified by the CCTV time and date stamp which matched Reuters reporting that Israel had struck Beirut’s southern suburbs on Wednesday evening.
