Summary

At least 43 people have been killed by Hurricane Helene, with remnants of the storm now wreaking havoc across the Southeast. Rescue operations are underway for hundreds in North Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee as heavy rain causes rising floodwaters. The Israeli military struck Hezbollah's headquarters in Beirut on Friday in a series of massive explosions that targeted the leader of the militant group and leveled multiple high-rise apartment buildings in the biggest blasts to hit the Lebanese capital in the past year.
