Lebanon's health ministry said one person was killed and 15 others were wounded Saturday in an Israeli strike on Hezbollah's south Beirut stronghold, which has been hard hit by the Israel-Hezbollah war.


The ministry announcement came as the official National News Agency said the "Israeli enemy launched a raid near Karout Mall... in the southern suburbs of Beirut".


The strike was not preceded by an Israeli evacuation warning.


According to an AFP photographer, the strike targeted an abandoned building, which includes a car dealership on the ground floor.


The area was cordoned of by the army and security forces.


Beirut's southern suburbs have been heavily bombed by Israel since its war with Hezbollah erupted in September.


The war has killed more than 1,900 people in Lebanon since September 23, according to an AFP tally based on figures from Lebanon's health ministry.
