The Arab Parliament condemned on Friday Israel’s latest aggression against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

It slammed it for targeting innocent civilians, claiming the lives of dozens of victims.

It held Israel responsible for the consequences of this “dangerous escalation against the Palestinian people.”

It denounced it for carrying out strikes “against civilian locations in blatant defiance of international law and violation of the United Nations Charter and international treaties.”

It called on the international community to intervene immediately to stop the escalation and protect civilians.

The Israeli army carried out airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs, called Dahiyeh, again on Saturday.

It warned residents in parts of the suburbs that they were residing near Hezbollah facilities, which the army would target in the near future.

The warning, posted on X, told people to evacuate at least 500 meters away.

The army said that over the past day it had conducted intelligence-based strikes on Hezbollah targets in Dahiyeh, where Hezbollah has a strong presence. It said it hit several command centers and weapons storage facilities.
