According to preliminary information obtained by This is Beirut, between two and four missiles were fired. A wood-packing warehouse between the villages of Chmestar and Taraya was targeted, as was a two-storey building in the vicinity of al-Amal hospital in Ansar, east of Baalbeck.
One person was killed and six injured. Emergency services were dispatched to the scene.
