Lebanon's Health Ministry said an Israeli strike on Beirut's southern suburbs killed three people on Friday as the Israeli military confirmed conducted a "targeted strike" in the Lebanese capital.

"The Israeli enemy's strike on Beirut's southern suburbs led, according to a preliminary toll, to the killing of three people, and Lebanese hospitals have received 17 wounded so far," the ministry said. 

The ministry did not give immediate information on the deceased, but an AFP report said a top commander of Hezbollah was among the dead, citing a source close to the group.
