The attack raised concerns that the cease-fire that ended a war between Israel and Lebanese militants might be in jeopardy.

The latest strike adds to strains on the U.S.-brokered ceasefire that ended last year's conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.

Israel carried out an airstrike in a Beirut suburb targeting a Hezbollah precision missile storage facility, as the Jewish state continued to attack sites related to the militant group in the southern part of the Lebanese capital despite a ceasefire agreement.
