Syria strongly condemned the brutal Israeli airstrikes that flattened buildings in densely populated areas in Beirut's southern suburbs, asserting that "the persistence of these inhumane acts will drag the entire region toward a dangerous escalation with unpredictable consequences.

In a statement, the Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates stated, "The Israeli entity continues its brutal war against the countries of the region— in Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria— having committed a new crime against humanity last night by targeting a residential area in the southern suburbs of Beirut, resulting in the destruction of several residential buildings "

The Syrian Foreign Ministry also denounced the world's silence in the face of these unprecedented harrowing crimes in modern history. It reiterated the right of the people of the region to "defend themselves against this Israeli terrorist aggression."

On Saturday morning, Al Mayadeen's cameras captured extensive footage of the destruction to residential buildings and infrastructure in Beirut's southern suburb, following a series of brutal Israeli airstrikes.

The Israeli military renewed a series of intense airstrikes on Beirut's southern suburbs overnight, destroying residential buildings and igniting widespread fires, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent. 

Israeli warplanes carried out more than 30 airstrikes overnight Friday, targeting buildings in the areas of Burj Al-Barajneh, Kafaat, Choueifat, Hadath, Al-Laylaki, and Mreijeh. Additionally, the airstrikes hit a house in the Jamous area of the southern suburbs of Beirut, according to our correspondent.

The Israeli airstrikes caused fires and massive destruction in several sites and buildings in the southern suburbs, leading to a wave of forcible displacement.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent also reported that the Israeli bombardment created what resembled "fire belts" in parts of the southern suburbs.
 
Furthermore, a fire broke out as a result of a strike on a fuel station in the Cocodi area, as reported by our correspondent.

Despite the extensive Israeli attacks on the Lebanese capital, air traffic at Beirut Airport continued uninterrupted.
