Live blog update| Israel's war on Gaza

Morning update

Good morning Middle East Eye readers,

Here are the latest updates from the Israeli wars on Gaza and Lebanon: 

  • The Israeli military began an invasion of Lebanon overnight, with the military claiming the operation would be "targeted and limited" to southern villages along the boundary with Israel. 

  • As tanks and troops moved on the ground, fighter jets continued to pound various areas across Lebanon, including air strikes on an ambulance centre in the Beqaa Governorate that killed eight people and another raid on the Ain al-Hilweh camp for Palestinian refugees that killed five people. 

  • Over in Gaza, air strikes also did not stop. A bombing of a school used to shelter displaced families in Gaza City left at least seven people killed and dozens wounded, in the latest massacre against Palestinian civilians, according to local authorities.
