The IDF explained the process of designating, analyzing, approving, and striking buildings in central Beirut without causing harm to surrounding civilian structures. The first step is to designate the building as being used for military purposes, followed by a decision to attack it due to the threat it poses. To prevent damage to the surrounding area, specialized officers match munitions to the operation and analyze the situation. The IDF uses tailored targeting for each structure, considering factors such as the building's construction, the plane's speed, and the strike's timing. In a specific instance, the IDF used a one-ton bomb called 'Heavy Hail' to target an underground Hezbollah weapons facility.
