Israel Kills 3 Civilians, Wounds 74 Others in Attack on Hezbollah Commander in Beirut
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The killing of Haniyeh came less than 24 hours after Israel claimed it
had assassinated Fuad Shukr, a senior Hezbollah commander, in Beirut.
The strike killed three civilians, including a woman, a girl and a boy,
and wounded 74 others. Hezbollah confirmed Shukr had been in the
building at the time, but the group has not confirmed his fate. Israel
had accused Skukr of being involved in Saturday's rocket attack that
killed 12 Druze children in the occupied Golan Heights.
