Israel has struck Beirut's southern suburbs without warning, defying a U.S. request not to attack Lebanon's capital. The strikes come days after a ceasefire agreement in Washington. Iran had warned that an attack on Beirut would renew full-scale war across the Mideast. Two people are reported killed and others hurt.
