A series of Israeli air strikes have hit the al-Housh district in the southern Lebanese city of Tyre, Al Jazeera reports, citing Lebanon’s NNA news agency reports.

Al Jazeera’s verification agency, Sanad, has confirmed footage posted online showing the moment of the bombing and dense smoke rising from multiple raids in the area.

The AFP news agency said the strikes on al-Housh coincided with an exodus of civilians from the Rashidieh camp for Palestinian refugees near Tyre, which had earlier received an evacuation warning.
