Iran threatens retaliation after Beirut attack

Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesman for the Iranian parliament’s national security commission, has warned Iran will “deliver a decisive and painful response” to the Israeli attack on Beirut’s southern suburbs.

“These rabid dogs must be disciplined and put back in their place. Look at the sky over the occupied lands tonight,” he wrote on X.

Earlier, Israeli strikes “targeted two apartments in two buildings”, according to Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency.

A “ceasefire” that was supposed to end the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah took effect on April 17, but has never been respected.
