On 29 September 2024, an apartment block in Ain El Delb was struck by Israeli missiles.
The entire six-storey building collapsed, killing 73 people – Lebanon’s deadliest attack in the latest escalation between Israel and Hezbollah.
The Israel Defense Forces said the building was targeted because it was a Hezbollah "terrorist command centre" and it "eliminated" a Hezbollah commander. It added that "the overwhelming majority" of those killed in the strike were "confirmed to be terror operatives".
But a BBC Eye investigation verified the identity of 68 of the 73 people killed in the attack and uncovered evidence suggesting just six were linked to Hezbollah’s military wing. None of those identified appeared to hold a senior rank.
The BBC’s World Service also found that the other 62 were civilians – 23 of them children.
