Hezbollah Media Chief Killed in Israeli Airstrike on Beirut

An Israeli air strike in central Beirut killed Hizbollah's media relations chief, Mohammad Afif, amid intensified military actions targeting the group. The strike, which also hit the Arab Socialist Ba’ath party headquarters, is part of Israel's broader offensive against Hizbollah, including media and financial targets. This escalation comes as diplomatic efforts, led by the US, push for a ceasefire based on UN Security Council Resolution 1701. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties and displacement in Lebanon, with ongoing tensions between Israel and Hizbollah.
