BEIRUT (Reuters) – An Israeli strike early Monday hit an upper floor of an apartment building in the Kola district of Beirut, Reuters witnesses said, making it the first Israeli strike within Beirut’s city limits in the escalating hostilities.

Reuters witnesses heard a bang and saw smoke rise from a hole in the upper floor, which seemed to have been specifically targeted.
