[0:04] We want to bring you up to date on our

[0:05] breaking news story this hour. Israeli

[0:07] war plananes have fired missiles at

[0:08] Beirut International Airport with the

[0:10] airport's three runways sustaining heavy

[0:12] damage. Israeli forces reportedly have

[0:15] also attacked other places located in

[0:17] the Lebanese capital's southern suburbs,

[0:19] including a Hezbollah television

[0:21] station. The Israeli military operation

[0:24] near Beirut is part of an air and sea

[0:26] assault on Hezblah targets after

[0:28] militants captured two Israeli soldiers

[0:30] near the Lebanese Israeli border.

[0:32] >> Meanwhile, Israel's northern city of

[0:34] Naharia has been hit by Kusha rockets

[0:37] fired from militants in South Lebanon.

[0:40] One woman is reported dead, several

[0:42] other people injured. Video from Naharia

[0:45] showed Israeli military vehicles heading

[0:48] north toward the Lebanese border. Now in

[0:50] Gaza, earlier an Israeli missile strike

[0:52] hit the Palestinian Foreign Ministry

[0:54] headquarters. Palestinian sources say at

[0:56] least 10 people were wounded there. So

[0:58] the violence as we see it now in the

[1:00] Middle East appears to be uh a two-front

[1:02] conflict with Israel fighting Hamas

[1:04] militants in Gaza and Hezbollah

[1:06] militants in Lebanon.

[1:20] that killed almost 200 people in Mumbai.

[1:22] >> Top US envoy Christopher Hill says there

[1:25] has been no progress in getting North

[1:27] Korea back to six party talks following

[1:29] its missile tests last week. Meanwhile,

[1:32] China and Russia have introduced a UN

[1:34] resolution urging Pyongyang to suspend

[1:37] missile launches and return to those

[1:39] talks. The resolution avoids sanctions

[1:41] that are part of a resolution proposed

[1:43] by Japan and supported by the United

[1:46] States.

[1:46] >> And the US president is stopping in

[1:48] Germany on his way to the G8 meeting in
