Massive explosion rocks Beirut as peace talks hang in balance
A huge guided bomb hit an apartment building in Beirutʼs Tayouneh district while officials looked at peace plans. Israeli forces say they target militant spots in cityʼs south
In a late-night strike that shook Beiruts Tayouneh district‚ the Israeli Defense Forces dropped a US-made precision-guided mega-bomb (weighing about 2000 pounds) on a multi-story building
The high-rise structure near the citys main park collapsed after the pre-dawn hit while Lebanese decision-makers were looking at a fresh US-backed peace plan: some officials dont see this timing as random
Israeli military officials increased their air-strikes in south Beirut lately — a zone they say has Hezbollah bases and support systems. The attack made a huge fire-ball light up the night sky; smoke went up above the park area
The bombing happened at a time when both sides look at ways to stop fighting: Lebanese higher-ups study new peace ideas that came from US helpers‚ but the talks status remains unclear
