9 Killed In Israeli Strikes On Lebanon Amid Gaza War | Read
Nine people, seven of them civilians, were killed on Wednesday in Israeli strikes on south Lebanon, official sources said, while the Israeli army said it lost a soldier in cross-border rocket fire. While the rocket attack was not immediately claimed, the exchanges of fire -- and the worst single-day civilian death number in Lebanon since cross-border hostilities began in October -- raised fears of a broader conflict between Israel and militant group Hezbollah.
