Lebanese were surveying the damage on Monday after overnight Israeli strikes hit nearly a dozen branches of a Hezbollah-run financial institution that Israel says is used to fund attacks but where many ordinary people keep their savings.

The Israeli army launched a series of airstrikes in Beirut, targeting specific buildings that housed branches of Qard al-Hassan, a financial institution connected to Hezbollah. This action has sparked significant attention due to its implications for the ongoing conflict in the region.

Israel has continued pounding Lebanon, including striking a number of financial institutions it claims are linked to Hezbollah. According to Lebanon's official National News Agency (NNA), Israeli strikes hit branches of Al-Qard Al-Hassan in the cities of Nabatieh and Tyre.
