- This was the first attack after the ceasefire, despite Trump’s warning.
A new development has come to light on Sunday (June 7, 2026) amid the ongoing conflict and tension between Israel and Lebanon. The Israeli Army on Sunday (June 7, 2026) carried out an attack on terrorist targets located in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital Beirut. The area where the Israeli army attacked is considered a stronghold of Hezbollah and is known as Dahiyeh. However, this is the first attack on the southern suburbs of Beirut after the US-brokered ceasefire on April 16.
Regarding this attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a joint statement that this attack was carried out in response to the firing by Hezbollah in northern Israel. However, these attacks have taken place at a time when the fragile US-brokered ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon came into effect just a few days ago.
What did the Israeli PMO say about the attack?
At the same time, Israel’s Prime Minister’s Office has also issued an official statement in this regard. The Israeli PMO said, ‘According to the instructions of Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have attacked a militant command center located in the Dahiyeh area of Beirut. This action has been taken in response to Hezbollah’s firing towards Israeli territory.
The attack took place a few days after Trump’s warning
These attacks by Israel in Lebanon took place at a time when, just a few days ago, US President Donald Trump had warned Netanyahu not to attack the southern suburbs of Beirut. According to Lebanon’s government news agency, the Israeli attacks targeted two apartments located in two buildings in the southern suburbs of Beirut.
According to the report of France 24, eyewitnesses of the Israeli attack said that several loud explosions were heard and a multi-storey building was targeted in the Hezbollah-influenced Dahiyeh area.
