Tel Aviv [Israel], March 25 (ANI): The Israel Defense Forces on Wednesday said that a missile fired by Iran fell in Beirut.
In a post on X, the IDF said, 'A ballistic missile fired by the Iranian Regime fell in Beirut following multiple launches directed toward Israel. Once again, the Iranian regime shows it doesn't care who gets hurt in its efforts to target Israel.'

Meanwhile, the Israeli military has ordered the evacuation of residents from seven neighbourhoods in the southern suburbs of the Lebanese capital, Beirut. Spokesman Avichay Adraee said the Israeli military would continue to attack Hezbollah infrastructure throughout different parts of the southern suburbs, as reported by Al Jazeera.
Lebanon's state-run National News Agency reported earlier that shrapnel from an interception by a foreign naval vessel had landed over a series of towns north of Beirut and led to some light injuries, as quoted by Al Jazeera.
The Israeli military said that it killed a Quds Force operative in Lebanon during a strike on Hazmieh, in the Beirut area, but outside of the city's southern suburbs. In a statement, the army and domestic security agency Shin Bet said naval forces carried out the attack on Monday, killing Mohammad Ali Kourani, whom they claim was involved in planning attacks under the direction of Iranian-linked groups, as per Al Jazeera.
The Quds Force is one of five branches of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. There has been no immediate comment from Iranian or Lebanese officials regarding the claim.
Meanwhile, earlier in the day, US President Donald Trump said that the US has won the war, adding that Iran's navy and air force have been completely decimated.
Speaking at the Swearing-In Ceremony for the Secretary of Homeland Security, Trump said, 'We're in negotiations right now. I can tell you, they'd like to make a deal and who wouldn't if you were there? Look, their navy's gone, their air force is gone, their communications are gone. pretty much everything they have is gone.' (ANI)
