Senior Hezbollah leader Wafiq Safa survives assassination attempt amid Israeli strikes in Central Beirut

Israel-Iran War: Israeli airstrikes in Beirut targeted senior Hezbollah official Wafiq Safa, though he managed to escape. The strikes, which marked the deadliest attack in the capital since Israels recent campaign escalation, killed 22 people and injured over 100. This attack extended beyond the usual targets in Beiruts southern suburbs. Safa, a key Hezbollah figure, has been involved in significant political and military negotiations. The strikes come amid ongoing raids in southern Lebanon, with Hezbollah launching rocket attacks on Israeli cities.
