Irna-Israel War LIVE: Israel Launches Huge Strikes Against South Beirut After Mass Evacuation Order | Netanyahu | CNBC TV18 Live view of the Beirut skyline as Israel’s military said it launched new airstrikes in the Lebanese capital. Israel said it is retaliating against Hezbollah militants after the Iran-backed group fired on Israel. BAABDA, LEBANON – View overlooking southern suburbs of Beirut's skyline as seen from Baabda, Lebanon. The Israeli military has carried out several waves of air strikes across Lebanon, including the capital Beirut, after the Iranian-backed armed group Hezbollah launched about 200 rockets into northern Israel. Many Israeli strikes were reported in the south of the country and Beirut's southern suburbs, a Hezbollah stronghold from which thousands of people have fled because of the intense bombardment over the past week. Some strikes hit other parts of the capital, including the Corniche seafront. Lebanon's health ministry said 12 people were killed there overnight. Hezbollah launched the rocket barrage across the Israeli border on Wednesday evening in an apparently co-ordinated attack with Iran. As of early March 2026, intense Israeli airstrikes and ground operations in Lebanon have resulted in over 500 deaths, including at least 83 children and dozens of women, following Hezbollah's attacks in response to the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Thousands are displaced, with strikes targeting Beirut’s southern suburbs, the Bekaa Valley, and southern border areas President Masoud Pezeshkian says Iran will never capitulate after US President Donald Trump demands “unconditional surrender” as Tehran continues to strike targets in Israel and Gulf region with drones and missiles. As the war launched by the US and Israel goes into its second week with no signs of slowing down, Trump threatens “very hard” strikes on Iran and claims Iran “surrendered” to its neighbours after Pezeshkian said Iranian forces will not target regional countries unless attacks originate from there. Israel has launched massive strikes against the southern suburbs of Beirut just hours after its military ordered the entire population of the area – more than 500,000 people – to evacuate immediately. The Israel Defense Forces had told all residents of the area to “save your lives and evacuate your homes immediately”, prompting an exodus of the Lebanese capital’s population in scenes of panic, before its warplanes launched strikes against what it claimed were Hezbollah targets in the area. The area covered by the order included several hospitals and government ministries. The strikes marked a significant escalation in Israel’s growing offensive in Lebanon, which began after Hezbollah fired missiles and drones into Israel on Monday. #khamenei #beirut #lebanon #iranisraelconflict #iranisraelescalation #tehrannews #telavivlive #netanyahu #irondome #middleeastwar #westasia
