Israeli air attacks have rained down on three neighbourhoods in Beirut, Lebanese state media reported, as the beleaguered nation says more than one million have been displaced since this punishing front in the wider regional war began more than two weeks ago.

“A series of raids and artillery shelling targeted southern towns at dawn,” Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) said on Tuesday.
