Oct. 8 (UPI) -- The military commander of Hezbollah's headquarters in Beirut, Suhail Hussein Husseini, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on the Lebanese capital, the Israeli military said Tuesday.

Hezbollah also said that it targeted areas north of Israeli city of Haifa, a day after an attack on the northern Israeli city wounded over 10 people.

A barrage of rockets launched by Hezbollah has struck central Israel's Haifa. India Today journalist, Gaurav Sawant, was on the ground in the city when a rocket alert was sounded, forcing him to seek immediate shelter. The attack occurred just 24 hours after the same high-rise building, where Sawant sought refuge, had been targeted by Hezbollah forces. The relentless rocket attacks have driven people, including vulnerable senior citizens, to seek safety in bunkers. Strangers have come together, united by a shared urgency to survive, as the city's warning sirens blare, signalling the threat of incoming rockets.

By 11 pm Monday night, Hezbollah had launched at least 190 rockets and missiles across Lebanon's border with Israel.
