Israel issues new round of forced evacuation orders in southern Lebanon

The Israeli military has issued new forced evacuation orders for towns and villages across southern Lebanon. Fighting is intensifying, despite a ceasefire that came into effect last month. Israeli forces say they have carried out strikes on 120 Hezbollah targets, but the impact is being felt far beyond those sites. The health ministry says 41 people were killed in a 24-hour period over the weekend.
That's taken the total death toll since the beginning of March to more than 2,600. Al Jazeera’s Rory Challands has more from Beirut, Lebanon.
