Israel kills the commander of Hezbollah's headquarters in Beirut, new wave of attacks in Lebanon

The Israeli military announced that it had killed Suhail Hussein Husseini, the commander of Hezbollah's headquarters in Beirut. The Israeli Air Force launched an attack based on intelligence information. According to the IDF, Husseini played a crucial role in transporting weapons between Iran and Hezbollah and was responsible for distributing advanced weapons among Hezbollah units. According to the Israeli military, he was a member of the Jihad Council, Hezbollah's military governing body.
Meanwhile, 21 people were killed during an overnight Israeli attack in central Gaza, including five children and two women. Two bombs hit houses in the Bureij refugee camp. There are also about a dozen injured, including several children, and rescuers fear there are more people under the rubble.
Lebanese state media said fresh attacks hit Beirut's southern suburbs overnight, after the Israeli military issued a warning to residents in the area.
An AFP correspondent saw smoke rising from the suburbs, and the country's National News Agency reported that the area was "the target of two raids".
Israel launched an intense wave of airstrikes in southern Lebanon on Monday, with 100 planes targeting around 120 targets, the Israeli military said.
An Arab IDF spokesman issued an urgent warning to Lebanese civilians to avoid the beach until further notice.
The wave of attacks came as Israelis marked the anniversary of last year's October 7 attacks by Hamas, the trigger for a year of escalating war in the region.
On Monday evening, sirens sounded in central Israel after several rocket launches were detected crossing from Lebanon. The Israeli military said some rockets were intercepted, while the rest landed in open areas.
