Israel kills three in Beirut as it intensifies attacks across Lebanon

Israel killed two people in a strike on Beirut as it escalated military operations across Lebanon, according to reports. The intensified attacks have forced more than a million people to flee their homes, creating a humanitarian displacement crisis. The escalation reflects the widening scope of Israel's military campaign in the region beyond initial confrontations with Hezbollah. The displacement represents one of the largest population movements in Lebanon in recent years, straining neighboring countries and international relief organizations. The strikes signal a shift toward broader targeting throughout Lebanese territory rather than operations limited to border areas.
