Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says his military would fight with "full force" in Lebanon, despite calls from allies, including the US, for a ceasefire.
The Lebanese government says Israeli strikes killed at least 26 people across the country on Thursday, with more than 550 killed since Monday.
Since 8 October, there has been near-daily cross border fire between Israel and Hezbollah.
Hezbollah, backed by Iran, says it is acting in solidarity with Palestinians. Israel says it aims to remove Hezbollah’s threat, and return displaced people back to northern Israel.
