Israel launched its deepest ground strike into Lebanon on Wednesday, claiming it had killed 10 Hezbollah guerrillas in the northeastern city of Baalbek, while nearby air strikes killed at least 15 civilians. Israeli warplanes also attacked a Lebanese army base in south Lebanon, killing three soldiers, a security official said. Hezbollah guerrillas hit back, firing a heavy barrage of rockets at towns across northern Israel, wounding at least six people Footage shot by journalists embedded with IDF troops showed Israeli tanks, army bulldozers and ground troops operating along the border, and inside southern Lebanon. Thousands of reservists, called up over the weekend, were gathering at staging areas on the Israeli side of the border, ready to join the battles and extend the range of the invasion. The Israelis want to keep Hezbollah off the border so their patrols and civilians along the fence are not in danger of attack, such as the July 12 raid in which guerrillas killed three soldiers and seized two others. The army also hopes to push Hezbollah far enough north so that most of Hezbollah rockets cannot reach the Jewish state. In announcing the expanded operation Monday, Israeli officials said their soldiers were to go as far as the Litani, about 18 miles (29 kilometres) from the border, and hold the ground until an international peacekeeping force comes ashore. Also along the border, near the Lebanese village of Aita al-Shaab, a rocket appeared to have hit an Israeli outpost on Wednesday, while heavy explosions could be heard and massive plumes of smoke seen from the relentless Israeli bombardment. Aita al-Shaab is the town from where Hezbollah militants crossed the border on July 12 and captured two Israeli soldiers, sparking the Israeli retaliatory military campaign. At least 542 Lebanese have been killed, including 468 civilians and 28 Lebanese soldiers and at least 46 Hezbollah guerrillas. The health ministry says the toll could be as high as 750, including those still buried in rubble or missing. Fifty-four Israelis have died - 36 soldiers as well as 18 civilians killed in Hezbollah rocket attacks.
