IN DEPTH | Israel rejects Lebanon ceasefire plan

Israel rejected calls for a ceasefire with the Hezbollah movement, defying its biggest ally, the United States, and pressing ahead with attacks that have killed hundreds of people in Lebanon and heightened fears of an all-out regional war.
An Israeli warplane struck the outskirts of the capital Beirut on Thursday, killing two people and wounding 15, including a woman in critical condition, Lebanon's health ministry said.
In addition, the attack killed the head of one of Hezbollah's air force units, Mohammad Surur, two security sources said.
The attack brought the death toll to 28, taking into account only the attacks on Wednesday night and Thursday.
Separately, on the Israeli side of the border with Lebanon, the army conducted an exercise simulating a ground invasion, a possible next stage after the relentless air strikes and explosions of communications devices.
Israel has vowed to protect its north and return to communities there citizens who have been evacuated since Hezbollah launched a campaign of cross-border attacks last year.
These attacks were ‘in solidarity with Palestinian militants fighting in Gaza’.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the UN General Assembly in the US that the army will continue to attack Hezbollah with ‘full force and we will not stop until we achieve all our goals.
First and foremost is to return the residents of the north safely to their homes’.
