The ongoing onslaught has caused large numbers to flee the area, with many sleeping rough in cars, parks, or on pavements.
“Last night was the most violence of all the previous nights. Buildings were shaking around us and at first I thought it was an earthquake,” Hanan Abdullah, a resident of the Burj al-Barajneh area, told Reuters.
“There were dozens of strikes – we couldn’t count them all – and the sounds were deafening”
Israel said it had been hitting “weapons storage facilities and terrorist infrastructure sites belonging to the Hezbollah terrorist organisation in the area of Beirut”.
Some strikes were reported to be followed by secondary explosions, leading to suggestions ammunition stores had been hit.

Still can’t get over these headlines. How about
*Israel strikes multiple Hezbollah weapon caches hidden in residential areas*
Instead, they mention in passing, in the middle of the article:
> Some strikes were reported to be followed by secondary explosions, leading to suggestions ammunition stores had been hit
By this point, there’s an ungodly amount of videos from Lebanon showing secondaries and cook off, some of them are quite spectacular.
How in the world can you write something like “leading to suggestions ammunition stores had been hit”? Leading to suggestions? Seriously?
Everyone knows. It’s deliberately, purposefully being downplayed by a lot of mass media.

From The Telegraph:
Beirut’s skyline was illuminated by a large fireball and the night split by repeated explosions as the Lebanese capital endured its heaviest night of air strikes [since Israel’s war with Hezbollah escalated](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/01/beirut-israel-feel-like-all-out-war-lebanon/).
The city was hit at least 30 times in the most intense bombardment in the two weeks since Israel stepped up its campaign, state media said.
Reported targets included a petrol station on the main highway leading to [Beirut’s airport](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/09/28/iranian-plane-u-turn-beirut-airport-after-israel-warning/) and a warehouse for medical supplies.
“Beirut just lived one of its worst nights,” said Michel Helou, secretary general of the National Bloc political party.
“More than 30 strikes. Total silence in the international community.”
Beirut’s southern suburbs have come under daily fire in the past fortnight, as Israel has said it is [targeting Hezbollah leaders](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/05/how-hezbollah-turned-lebanon-into-mafia-state/), infrastructure and arms caches.
