The Israeli military struck a building in Beirut’s southern suburbs early Tuesday, killing at least four people in an attack it said targeted a member of the Hezbollah militant group. The airstrike came just days after Israel launched its first attack on the Lebanese capital since a ceasefire ended fighting between Israeli forces and Hezbollah in November.

Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, meanwhile, report finding it harder to find food as bakeries were closing due to lack of flour and fuel. Israel says enough food entered Gaza during a six-week ceasefire with Hamas to sustain the territory’s roughly 2 million Palestinians for “a long period of time,” but the U.N. says its stockpiles are critically low.
