Israel has attacked hundreds of Hezbollah targets in air strikes that Lebanese health authorities say killed at least 270 people, marking the deadliest escalation since the 2006 conflict and the deadliest day in nearly a year of conflict. After some of the heaviest cross-border exchanges of fire since the hostilities flared, Israel warned people to leave areas where it said the armed movement was storing weapons.
Earlier, Israel’s Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said the actions would continue until “we achieve our goal to return the northern residents safely to their homes,” setting the stage for a long conflict as Hezbollah has vowed to fight on until there is a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. Lebanon’s health ministry said at least 274 people had been killed, including 21 children, and 1024 were wounded in Israel’s strikes on Monday.
