The airstrike on the Haret Hreik neighborhood targeted the leader of the Radwan forces, Hezbollah's elite and battle-hardened fighting unit, Israeli authorities said.

BEIRUT, May 6 (Reuters) - Israel struck Beirut on Wednesday for the first time since agreeing to a ceasefire with Hezbollah last month, with Israel saying it targeted a commander of the militant group's elite Radwan force in the city's southern suburbs.

A group of Democratic U.S. senators have called for the U.S. Central Command to answer questions about American coordination with Israel in declaring broad "evacuation zones" in Lebanon and Iran, claiming the practice may violate international law.

Israel carried out several airstrikes Friday on southern Lebanon that killed at least 10 people, while the militant Hezbollah group said it fired rockets and drones at northern Israel where two soldiers were wounded.

Israeli strikes targeted three different medical teams in the span of mere minutes in southern Lebanon, killing four medics and wounding six.
