Israeli strike hits southern Beirut with no prior warning

A strike hit Beirut's southern suburbs on Friday afternoon without any warning from the Israeli military, Lebanese state media reported. 

Footage from AFP showed smoke rising from the area.

Lebanon's state-run National News Agency said Israeli warplanes "carried out a very heavy strike... on the Tahouitet al-Ghadir area".

Strikes on the same district killed two people earlier on Friday.
