Continued Israeli Attacks on Hezbollah Targets in Southern Beirut Following Missile Fire at Northern Israel

While concerns grow over the potential targeting of Iran's largest oil terminal by Israel, Mohsen Paknejad, the Minister of Oil of the Islamic Republic, landed on Sunday, October 7, on Khark Island. According to the news website of the Ministry of Oil "Shana", Paknejad arrived to visit oil facilities and meet with operational staff. This oil terminal has a storage capacity of 23 million barrels of crude oil. An Israeli military spokesperson announced on Saturday that Israel would retaliate "at the appropriate time" following last week's missile attack from Tehran. After the Islamic Republic's attack, Axios reported, citing Israeli officials, that Iranian oil facilities might be targeted. In another report, this morning, the official Lebanese news agency reported continued Israeli attacks on southern Beirut following the firing of two missiles at Israeli shores. A reporter from Agence France-Presse reported hearing a large explosion and seeing columns of smoke rising above the impact site. Meanwhile, Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati called for "pressure on Israel" to achieve a ceasefire. Mikati stated that he supports the efforts of the United States and France to establish a ceasefire. In another news from the Times of Israel, Qatari officials announced that Yahya Sinwar, a Hamas leader in Gaza, no longer contacts them but is alive. Simultaneously, missile warning sirens sounded in several northern Israeli settlements, including "Kaman, Rama, Shazor, Beit Jan, Sajur, and Karmiel". The Israeli army stated that the missile warning sirens that sounded on Sunday in "Nativ Ha'asara" were due to a false alarm. Additionally, the seventh victim of the terrorist shooting on Tuesday, October 1, at the light rail station in Jaffa was identified as Viktor Shimshon Green, 33 years old. The other five victims were Jonas Khouris, 26, Ruytel Bronstein, 24, Ilya Nozadze, 42, Shahar Goldman, 30, and Anbar Segaf Vigdor, 33. This terrorist attack resulted in the deaths and injuries of several Israeli citizens. News image; large explosion in southern Beirut continuing Israeli airstrikes.
