Israeli strike in northern Lebanon kills at least 18 people
BEIRUT (AP) -- The Lebanese Red Cross says an Israeli airstrike hit an apartment building in northern Lebanon, killing at least 18 people. There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military and it was not clear what the target was. The strike on Monday hit a small apartment building in the village of Aito, far from the Hezbollah militant group's main areas of influence in the south and east of Lebanon. Hours earlier, Palestinian medics said an Israeli airstrike on a hospital courtyard in the Gaza Strip killed at least four people and left more than two dozen with severe burns. The Israeli military says it was targeting militants hiding among civilians, without providing evidence.
