Israel targets drone production sites in Lebanon

# Israeli air strikes pummeled the southern suburbs of Lebanon’s capital, Beirut yesterday, sending thousands of people fleeing the capital. Reuters reports the Israeli military conducted at least ten strikes in the area known as Dahiyeh, after it issued evacuation warnings. The Israeli military said that it was planning to strike underground drone production infrastructure sites that were deliberately established in the heart of the civilian population. It said Hezbollah was producing thousands of drones there, alleging it was with the direction and funding of Iran.
