Israel expanded its bombardment in Lebanon, hitting Beirut's southern suburbs with a dozen airstrikes and striking a Palestinian refugee camp deep in northern Lebanon for the first time.
The attack on the Beddawi camp near the northern city of Tripoli killed an official with Hamas' military wing along with his wife and two young daughters, the Palestinian militant group said in a statement.
Israel says it is targeting Hezbollah commanders and military equipment and aims to drive the militant group away from shared borders. Hezbollah and the Israeli military have traded fire almost daily, forcing tens of thousands of people on both sides of the border to flee their homes.
