Israel's Attack in Central Beirut Was Its First There in Years
Briefly

The recent overnight strike in the Cola neighborhood marks Israel's first known strike in central Beirut since 2006, signaling a significant escalation in the conflict.
Israel has intensified its operations in the Dahiya area, particularly following the massive bombing that resulted in the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah last week.
The January 2 strike represented Israel's first action in the Dahiya since the onset of the Gaza conflict last October, focusing on a Hamas official.
The Israeli strike that killed senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr on July 30 also resulted in the deaths of key members of Hezbollah's military leadership.
