LIVE: People in Lebanon cross into Syria as they flee Israeli airstrikes

People in Lebanon cross into Syria as they flee Israeli airstrikes. The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah resumed a year ago when the Iranian-backed group began firing rockets at Israeli positions in support of Hamas at the start of the Gaza war and has sharply escalated in recent weeks. The Middle East remains on high alert for Israel to retaliate against Iran for an Oct. 1 barrage of long-range missiles launched in response to Israel's assaults on Lebanon. #Israel #Lebanon #flee #Syria #MiddleEast #live #news #reuters Keep up with the latest news from around the world: https://www.reuters.com/
