Israel said it has begun its widely expected ground offensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon, following a build-up of tanks along the border. The army said the targets of Operation Northern Arrows — a number of villages in southern Lebanon — pose an immediate threat to residential communities in northern Israel. The military has also carried out more airstrikes, with blasts heard across the Lebanese capital Beirut very early on Tuesday. In an interview with DW, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called for a cease-fire in Gaza, and expressed doubt over the ultimate aims of Israel’s military operations and ground invasion in Lebanon.
