Russia accused Israel on Tuesday of violating international law after it struck a Hezbollah stronghold in the suburbs of the Lebanese capital Beirut.

"This is a gross violation of international law," Russia's foreign ministry told state news agencies.

Israel said the strike targeted a commander allegedly responsible for Saturday's rocket strike on the annexed Golan Heights that killed 12 children in a Druze town.

Media reports said the strike targeted senior Hezbollah military commander Fouad Shukur amid conflicting reports on his fate.
