Internal Divisions and Military Strategies in Israel's Ongoing Conflict

The Lebanese capital Beirut is a divided city, where life continues as normal for some, while not so far away Israeli air strikes are reducing buildings to rubble.

The militant group has been firing missiles into Israel since Hamas terrorists crossed from Gaza into Israel last year.
