Israelis are steeling themselves for an attack from Iran and Hezbollah. Iran has vowed retaliation against Israel after the assassination of a Hamas leader in Tehran last week.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered fighter jets as well as Navy destroyers and cruisers deployed to "bolster force protection for U.S. troops in the region and to defend Israel," the Pentagon said.

Hamas called Haniyeh's death "a dangerous event" that would have repercussions across the region. Israeli officials said they had no comment.

The Israeli military says it "eliminated" a top Hezbollah commander in a suburb of Lebanon's capital in retaliation for a deadly rocket attack in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights.

A rocket struck a soccer field near the Lebanon border this weekend killing 12 children and wounding more. The community hit is Druze and, though Arab, can claim Israeli citizenship.

After a strike this weekend that killed 12 children in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, is an all out war between Israel and the Lebanese group Hezbollah likely?

A rocket attack in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights killed 12 children on a soccer field yesterday. Israel blames the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, which denies responsibility for the attack.

A rocket has hit a sports complex filled with children playing soccer in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights region Saturday afternoon, on the same day that an Israeli strike in Gaza devastated a school building and killed dozens.

An Israeli airstrike hit yet another school sheltering displaced people in Gaza. Later, a rocket strike in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights hit a soccer field where kids were playing.

In Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's address to Congress, he said civilian casualties in Rafah were "practically none." NPR and other organizations have documented numerous civilian casualties there.
