The Israeli military claimed it targeted Hezbollah weapons depots after carrying out more than 30 strikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut, in what Lebanese media described as “the most violent night” of attacks.

Israeli marines mounted a first ground assault on Gaza early July 13, further escalating a deadly six-day offensive hours after the U.N. Security Council unanimously called for a ceasefire.

The Israeli air force bombed 160 targets in the Gaza Strip overnight as it pressed a widescale campaign to stop volleys of Palestinian rocket fire, an army official said Wednesday.
