At least four strikes targeted Baalbeck and its region in the Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, on Sunday afternoon, according to information from our correspondent Sarah Abdallah. The first strike on Baalbeck occurred nearly three and a half hours after threats were issued by Arabic-language spokesperson Avichay Adraee, aimed at five buildings in Baalbeck and Douris.

These four raids targeted a building on Kayal Road, the al-Rida restaurant near the government hospital, a building close to the local branch of the Lebanese University and the Lakkis neighborhood in Douris. Additionally, other strikes, carried out without prior warning, targeted the western Bekaa region, including Machghara, Sohmor, an area between Sohmor and Qaraoun, and the village of Labbaya.
