Israel is expanding its ground invasion of Lebanon against Hezbollah, sending thousands of additional troops into a new zone in the south-west of the country.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said a fourth division had joined the eight-day-old ground operation seeking to dismantle Hezbollah targets and infrastructure.
Meanwhile, Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant told officers that the successor of assassinated Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah "was probably also eliminated".
Hezbollah’s fighters launched barrages of rockets towards the northern Israeli port city of Haifa on Tuesday for the third consecutive day, injuring 12 people.
