"An urgent warning to those who are in Beirut's southern suburbs, particularly in the Hadath area: All those who are in the red-marked building on the attached map, as well as in the surrounding buildings, are close to Hezbollah's facilities", says the Israeli military on X.

"You must evacuate".

Earlier on Sunday, one person was killed in an Israeli drone attack on the southern Lebanese town of Halta, according to Lebanese health authorities. The attack is said to have taken place early on Sunday.

It is not uncommon for Israel to carry out targeted attacks on targets in Lebanon, despite a formal ceasefire having been in place since November 27. Israel often claims that the operations are carried out against individuals within the militant Shia movement Hezbollah.
