Israel struck 1,500 targets throughout Lebanon over the past 24 hours, it said Tuesday afternoon local time, hitting what its forces said were militant sites linked to Hezbollah in the country’s south and east and in the capital Beirut. Thousands of Lebanese people are seeking to flee to safer areas. Since Monday, Israel’s strikes have killed at least 564 people, including 50 children, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. Six of the deaths came Tuesday in a strike in Beirut that left 15 others injured, the health ministry said. Israel called it a “targeted strike.” At least 1,835 were wounded. Hezbollah fired more rockets Tuesday as world leaders scrambled to cool tensions and avoid a wider war.
