"Israeli enemy strikes in the past 24 hours... killed 37 people and injured 151," the health ministry said on Thursday night.
Israel launched several waves of airstrikes on Beirut’s southern neighborhood of Dahiyeh on Thursday.
The regime used powerful bunker-buster bombs in its latest attacks, whose number was more than a dozen.
Several civilian buildings were the main goals of the regime’s latest strikes.
Reports indicate that more bombs were used in the latest attacks compared to the strike that killed the leader of the Hezbollah resistance movement, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, last Friday.
The attacks also hit the vicinity of Beirut International Airport.
According to Israeli media, the assassination of Hashem Safieddine, head of Hezbollah's Executive Council, was the main objective of the regime’s attacks.
Israel’s strikes also targeted several other locations, including Hezbollah’s media relations office and a warehouse near the Beirut airport.
A source close to Hezbollah said Israel had conducted 11 consecutive strikes in south Beirut on Thursday night.
AFP correspondents in the Lebanese capital heard loud bangs that made car alarms go off and buildings shake.
"Israel struck the southern suburbs 11 consecutive times," the source said on the condition of anonymity.
Giant balls of flame rose from the targeted site with thick smoke billowing and flares shooting out.
