Large building in Lebanon's capital destroyed as peace talks continue
US-made precision bomb hit an 11-story structure in Beiruts residential area while officials discussed peace options. Israeli forces targeted the area known for militant presence
In a pre-dawn strike on friday‚ Israeli Defense Forces used a high-precision two-thousand pound bomb to destroy an eleven-story building near Beiruts largest park (the blast created a huge fireball visible across the city)
The attack happened in Tayouneh district while Lebanese decision-makers were looking at a new US-backed peace plan; the timing raised many questions about military operations during diplomatic talks. A washington-post journalist was present at the scene and saw the whole event
The southern parts of Lebanese capital saw more military activity lately as IDF increased its operations in areas where they say Hezbollah fighters and their equipment are located. The building collapsed completely sending thick smoke clouds over nearby residential blocks
The bomb used in this strike had american-made guidance systems which shows continued military-technical cooperation between US and Israel in middle-east operations
