STORYLINE:
A large explosion hit the Lebanese capital, Beirut, on Tuesday as Israel’s air force struck a southern suburb.

The strike came after Israel's military warned people that it will attack several areas south of Beirut saying the militant Hezbollah group is active there.

Tuesday's strike came a day after more than a dozen strikes hit Beirut's southern suburbs mainly targeting buildings housing offices of Hezbollah's financial arm known as al-Qard al-Hasan.

The Israeli military spokesman said shortly after the first strike on Tuesday that the air force has began attacks on Hezbollah infrastructure south of Beirut.
