From the New York Times, it's the headlines.
I'm Tracy Mumford.
Today's Tuesday, October 1.
Here's what we're covering at 02:00 a.m.
local time in Israel, the government announced that israeli forces had crossed the border into Lebanon, the beginning of a ground invasion.
A Times reporter near the border saw israeli troops equipped with night vision goggles traveling in Humvees, along with dozens of tanks and bulldozers.
As of this morning, israeli fighter helicopters have been carrying out strikes, and clouds of smoke are rising over villages in southern Lebanon.
Israel says it's focused on Hezbollah targets in the border region.
The Iran backed militant group has been firing rockets from there at Israel for the last year in solidarity with Hamas in Gaza.
Israel is saying this is a limited operation, and we understand from officials that we've been talking to that it mostly at the moment involves commando units advancing into the border area, not advancing towards major cities, let alone towards Beirut.
Patrick Kingsley is the Jerusalem bureau chief of the Times.
He says the invasion comes after weeks of intense israeli airstrikes that have killed top Hezbollah commanders and hundreds of civilians in Lebanon.
It remains to be seen whether this invasion will indeed remain limited.
There is always mission creep in these kinds of invasions.
