Israel: Lebanon warehouse burns for over 24 hours after being hit by IDF air strike

The owner of a Lebanese warehouse struck by Israeli strikes yesterday has denied claims it is a Hezbollah weapons depot. Mohamad Khalifa told the Associated Press: “This is a company registered for 11 years that works with electricity generators, open from morning until night, receiving customers all day. There is nothing hidden here. The claim that this has weapons is a lie.” The warehouse was reduced to rubble, with fires still burning 24 hours later. It was one of two warehouses hit by IDF attacks near Ghaziyeh in response to a drone attack that struck northern Israel yesterday.
