Lebanon is currently observing three days of mourning following Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah's killing but Israeli warplanes have continued to bombard Beirut with health ministry reporting 33 people killed across the country on Saturday.
Israel has deployed troops near the border with Lebanon, two days after the air strikes in Beirut that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel had 'settled the score' with Nasrallah's death, calling it a 'historic turning point'.
The Israeli military said that 'among the targets that were struck are Hezbollah launchers that were aimed toward Israeli territory, structures in which weapons were stored and additional Hezbollah terrorist infrastructure.'
Many families took shelter in public squares and beaches or in their cars in the city center, which has so far been spared from the barrage. 'We just want a safe place, we do not need clothes or aid or food or drink. We just want a safe place so that our children are not afraid, we left the Syrian war for the sake of the children, we came here and the same war happened,' said Syrian refugee.
