Another two people were killed by an Israeli strike on a Palestinian refugee camp earlier in the day. A building heavily damaged by Israeli strikes is pictured Ali al-Nahri, Lebanon, yesterday. Earlier the same day, another Israeli strike had hit a Palestinian refugee camp in the port city of Sidon, killing two people. Since then, Israel has accused Hezbollah of trying to rebuild and has carried out near-daily strikes in Lebanon that it says target Hezbollah militants and facilities. During last year’s Israel-Iran war, Hezbollah remained on the sidelines, but many in Lebanon fear that the country would be pulled in should another war break out.
