Israel\u2019s air attacks across Lebanon targeting the militant group Hezbollah continued early Tuesday, and its military said it had sent more troops into the country, as the broadening conflict in the Middle East entered its second year with no sign of abating.<\/p>\n
The intense overnight bombardment followed a day marking the first anniversary of the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel that sparked the war. On Monday, Israel and the adversaries it is battling along four fronts all vowed to continue the fight.<\/p>\n
The Palestinian civil defense in Gaza said 12 people were killed and several others were wounded in Israeli airstrikes this morning on a family home and tents housing displaced people in the Bureij camp in central Gaza. The Israeli military said its troops were operating in Bureij, where they were \u201cdismantling terrorist infrastructure sites and eliminating terrorists.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Israeli military said about 85 rockets were launched over the border from Lebanon. Sirens were activated in Haifa and surrounding areas in northern Israel, and large explosions could be heard<\/p>\n
There have just been two large airstrikes in the Dahiya, the cluster of neighborhoods south of Beirut. They could be heard for miles.<\/p>\n
There has just been yet another strike in the area, this time a few blocks south. Three daytime attacks in such a short time period is uncommon. I can see a thick plume of smoke rising in the distance.<\/p>\n
Sheikh Naim Qassem, the deputy leader of Hezbollah, said in a televised speech that the Lebanese militia\u2019s ability to fight Israel remained intact, despite a series of attacks and assassinations by Israel. \u201cOur capabilities are fine, and what the enemy said about exhausting our capabilities is an illusion,\u201d he said, adding that the group, still reeling from the assassination of its longtime leader Hassan Nasrallah, was working on electing his replacement. \u201cThe current circumstances are difficult and complicated because of this war,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
As soon as Sheikh Qassem finished his speech, sirens warning of incoming rocket fire blared across parts of northern Israel.<\/p>\n
The Israeli military said that a fourth division had begun operating in Lebanon\u2019s southwest on Monday, expanding its forces there. Israeli troops first crossed into Lebanon a week ago in what the military called a \u201climited\u201d operation.<\/p>\n
