Live Updates: Israel and Hezbollah Trade Heavy Fire; Over 270 Killed in Lebanon, Officials Say

Israeli airstrikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon killed more than 270 people and injured more than a thousand others on Monday, Lebanon’s health ministry said, in the deadliest day of Israeli attacks there since at least 2006, when Israel last fought a war with the Iran-backed militant group.

Sirens repeatedly went off in communities in northern Israel, warning of rocket fire from Hezbollah. The Iran-backed militant group has been firing at Israel since last October in support of its ally, Hamas. There were no reports of deaths and serious casualties in Israel.
