STORYLINE:
Smoke was seen rising from a fire in Beirut late Thursday, a day after an Israeli airstrike on an apartment in a central area of the city killed nine people, according to Lebanon's health ministry.

Earlier on Thursday, the Israeli military warned people to evacuate further sites in southern Lebanon, signaling a possible widening of its ground operation against the Hezbollah militant group.

The World Health Organization reported Thursday that 28 health workers were killed in the past day in Lebanon.

The announcement of the deaths comes after three dozen health facilities were closed in the south and five hospitals were either partly or fully evacuated in Beirut.
