100 killed by Israeli strikes in Lebanon as tensions escalate.

by · Voice of America

100 people were killed and 400 injured by Israeli air strikes in Lebanon in the latest escalation of tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. The UN General Assembly is underway in New York, and US President Joe Biden is preparing to address the conference for the final time as President. In a move widely condemned by free speech advocates, Israeli forces raid the offices of Al Jazeera and confiscate equipment. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is in the US as Ukraine strikes major weapons storage facilities inside Russia, and Sri Lanka has a new president.
