That’s all for our live coverage of the conflicts in the Middle East this evening.
Before we go, here is a recap of the key developments over the course of the day:
Israel targets Hezbollah’s finances
Israel’s military targeted dozens of bank branches last night.
It claimed the al Qard al Hassan financial institution helped Hezollah pay fighters and buy weapons.
Sky News international correspondent Alex Rossi reported live from the site of one of the strikes, describing the devastation it had caused.
While Israel tries to justify its target, the bank branches are civilian infrastructure and often in the same buildings as apartments.
Israel also claimed to have killed Hezbollah’s head of money transfers, in an attack in Syria.
Syrian state media described it as a “guided missile attack” on a car and reports said that two people had died and three others were injured.
Palestinians ’rounded up’ in northern Gaza
Elsewhere, shocking footage emerged from Jabalia, in the north of Gaza, where Palestinians appeared to be being “rounded up”, according to reports.
Drone footage showed hundreds of people being lined up among the rubble and debris.
Further footage appears to show men being split up from women and children and ID cards seemingly being inspected.
Israeli operations have deepened in the area in recent weeks and one person in Jabalia told Sky News’ Adam Parsons Israel had attacked it daily for 17 days straight.
In other developments:
- At least four people, including one child, were killed in an Israeli strike near the Rafik Hariri University Hospital in southern Beirut on Monday evening, according to Lebanon’s health ministry.
- Israel claimed “millions of dollars in gold and cash” were located in a bunker underneath the al Sahel hospital in Beirut. The hospital was evacuated. Israel later said it wasn’t going to strike it.
- The US is set to make another push for a ceasefire as Antony Blinken heads back to the Middle East – his eleventh trip since 7 October.
- UNRWA, the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees, accused Israel of continuing to restrict the flow of aid into northern Gaza and said some of its shelters were so overcrowded people were staying in the toilets.
- An Israeli security service said it had broken up a spy network and arrested seven citizens who were passing on information to Iran.
- Also in northern Gaza, Israeli forces blew up homes and besieged schools and shelters, Reuters said.
