Residents check the damaged in the aftermath of overnight Israeli bombardment in Beirut's southern suburbs, on September 28, 2024. Smoke could be seen rising over the city's Hezbollah-controlled southern suburbs, known as the Dahiyeh. The Israeli military said a missile fired at central Israel on Saturday had struck an open area. There was no immediate confirmation of Nasrallah's fate after Friday's heavy strikes, but a source close to Hezbollah told Reuters he was not reachable. Israel has not said whether it tried to hit Nasrallah, but a senior Israeli official said top Hezbollah commanders were targeted.

Lebanon MPs pass second attempt at new banking secrecy law

BEIRUT, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Lebanon's parliament on Thursday passed another round of amendments to a banking secrecy law after the International Monetary Fund said a previous draft retained key deficiencies. The IMF has laid out a list of reforms, including amending its banking secrecy law, that Lebanon must implement before it can gain access to $3 billion to relieve its economic crisis, one of the worst in modern history. Parliament passed an amended banking secrecy law in late July but the IMF recommended a slew of changes and Lebanese President Michel Aoun sent it back to parliament to make them. The latest draft still does not lift banking secrecy as a whole. The law still needs to be signed into law by Aoun, whose term ends on Oct. 31.
