Israel unleashes missile near British embassy in Beirut
Israel has unleashed a missile on a medical centre near the British embassy in Lebanon.
A number of buildings were engulfed in flames after the strike in Bachoura area, marking the second time Israel has struck central Beirut this week.
At least two people were killed and 11 others wounded, according to a provisional report from the Ministry of Health.
The death toll later jumped to five, but it is expected to continue to rise as more bodies are unearthed from the rubble.
Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV station said the strike targeted a centre of the group’s health unit.
Footage shows people rushing to the scene and combing through the rubble for survivors.
