Women mourn three family members, a father, a mother and their son, who were killed during an Israeli strike on Wednesday on the Lebanese village of Joun, during their funeral in Joun, Lebanon September 26, 2024.Israel rejected global calls on Thursday for a ceasefire with Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement, defying its biggest ally the US and pressing ahead with strikes that have killed hundreds in Lebanon and heightened fears of an all-out regional war.
On the Israeli side of the border with Lebanon, the army staged an exercise simulating a ground invasion – a potential next stage after relentless airstrikes and explosions of communications devices. Hundreds of thousands of people have fled their homes during the heaviest Israeli bombardment of Lebanon since a major war in 2006.
More than 600 people have been killed since Monday in Israel’s strikes on Lebanon. Hezbollah has fired hundreds of missiles at targets in Israel including its commercial hub Tel Aviv, although Israel’s aerial defence system has ensured that the damage has been limited.
