U.S.-made and supplied F-15 fighters, employed by Israel to kill and maim

Beirut, October 30 (RHC)-- A new wave of Israel airstrikes has rocked the eastern Lebanese city of Baalbek and its outskirts, as the regime presses ahead with its ground and aerial invasion of Lebanon. Baalbek Mayor Mustafa al-Shall confirmed the Israeli strikes on Wednesday.

The strikes targeted the Asira area, along with the town of Iaat and its surroundings.

Israel has issued a displacement order for the entire city.  The Israeli military’s newest forced displacement order in Baalbek includes its 3,000-year-old Roman ruins.

Israeli aircraft also launched violent raids on Sohmor and Labaya in western Bekaa. Israel bombed homes in the Wadi al-Asafir area in the city of Khiam.

Israeli aircraft also launched a raid on a residential area near the industrial city in the suburbs of Tyre.  Another Israeli airstrike targeted the outskirts of the town of Sarirah in the Jezzine region.

Since October 2023, Israel has killed over 2,700 people in Lebanon. Most of them have lost their lives in the past month amid the intensified airstrikes and a ground offensive. 

Hezbollah has been responding to the aggression with retaliatory operations, targeting the occupied territories.

The Lebanese Resistance movement has vowed to keep up its operations against Israel as long as the regime continues its campaign of genocide in Gaza, which has so far killed more than 43,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
