A new wave of Israeli extensive airstrikes hit Beirut, its suburbs and other Lebanese regions Tuesday, ahead of an expected cease-fire to end the 13-month war between Israel and Hezbollah.

Israel launched a new wave of extensive airstrikes that hit the area of Tayouneh on the outskirts of Beirut's southern suburbs, on Tuesday. The airstrikes come ahead of an expected cease-fire to end the 13-month war between Israel and Hezbollah.

The strikes, which destroyed an eight-story building and left a crater in the ground, were the fourth in Beirut in less than a week.
