They have mostly targeted Hezbollah's leadership and fighters, but in recent days, some government buildings have come under attack. Christian towns further north, where fighters had reportedly taken shelter, have also been hit.

Is Israel trying to isolate Shia Hezbollah supporters by inflaming sectarian tension?
