Hundreds of thousands have been displaced since Israel intensified its bombing campaign in Lebanon, saying it is targeting Hezbollah.

The Lebanese parliament has extended its term by two years due to the U.S.-Israel war with Iran, which has pushed the region into an escalating conflict, and Israel stepped up its attacks on Lebanon.

A relative tells BBC those killed were civilians and not Hezbollah operatives, but the Israel Defence Forces says it was targeting "terrorist infrastructure".

By Maya Gebeily BEIRUT, March 13 (Reuters) - Israel has rebuffed a historic offer of direct talks from Lebanon, deeming it too little too late from a government that shares its goal of disarming Hezbollah but cannot act against the heavily armed Lebanese group without risking a civil war.

The road into Tyre is lined with the yellow and green flags of Hezbollah. Billboards are filled with the faces of fighters who lost their lives in the many battles with Israel over the years.

The French government has drafted a proposal to end the war in Lebanon that would require the Lebanese government to take the unprecedented step of recognizing Israel, three sources familiar with the details told Axios.

The release of the footage comes after Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel. The group said the action was in response to what it described as the unilateral war launched by Tel Aviv and the United States against Iran,
