Israeli warplanes have been flying at low altitudes over Beirut and Mount Lebanon, causing significant sonic booms that have been heard throughout the city. These sonic booms, described as the loudest yet, have reportedly shattered windows in Beirut and its suburbs. The flights are seen as a show of force, coinciding with a scheduled speech by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Witnesses reported seeing the planes clearly as they flew low over the Lebanese capital, creating one of the largest sonic booms heard by residents in years. The Israeli jets also dropped hot air balloons over the city. The incident was reported by Sky News, and some described the flights as a mock raid.
