In a series of violent airstrikes on Tuesday Israeli enemy aircraft targeted multiple areas in Western Bekaa, including Aishiya, Mahmoudiya, the outskirts of Qilya, Wadi Bergoz, and Sarireh, extending to Sohmor. No injuries have been reported, but enemy planes continue to circle the region.

In Hermel, the border area of Jarmash, near the Syrian frontier, was struck by enemy aircraft. Additionally, a drone carried out a raid on the town of Hosh al-Sayyed Ali in the Hermel district.

Baalbek was also hit by a coordinated series of airstrikes just after midnight, with the most severe damage occurring at the southern entrance of the city in Qubbat Duris, where a building was destroyed. The strikes caused extensive damage to nearby structures, including the al-Mortada Hospital, which has been rendered non-operational.

A home on the outskirts of Baalbek was also destroyed.

Residents reported an unpleasant odor in the city, possibly from toxic materials released during the bombardment.

The strikes also targeted
the towns of Duris and Shaat in the Baalbek district, while drones continued to fly over the area.
