The Israeli army has confirmed that it struck a building in the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Tuesday, while targeting a Hezbollah commander. Israel's Defense Minister has said Hezbollah "crossed a red line" by killing children on a soccer field over the weekend. Also, Venezuelans are out in the streets in many parts of the country, disputing the results of Sunday's presidential election. Longtime leader Nicolás Maduro was declared the winner, but the opposition says it can prove its candidate actually got the most votes. Plus, the detention of nine Israeli soldiers, under investigation for the alleged abuse of a Palestinian inmate, has laid bare the polarized state of Israeli society. The inquiry has angered far-right lawmakers and protesters who broke into a detention facility on Monday.
