It was the biggest Israeli attack on the Lebanese capital.
The Israel Defense Forces carried out the largest attack on Beirut on the night of October 6, carrying out more than 30 airstrikes on the southern outskirts of the city. The main targets included Hezbollah facilities and buildings near Rafik Hariri International Airport.
