In pictures: Mid-East bloodshed goes on

Sunday was one of the bloodiest days of the Lebanon conflict for Israel.

A barrage of Hezbollah rockets was fired into northern Israel. Ten reserve soldiers died in Kfar Giladi, when rockets struck a car park.

More than three weeks after this conflict began, Hezbollah's capability seems largely undiminished, prompting questions about Israel's strategy in this war.

Meanwhile, diplomats at the UN were hammering out a draft of a resolution calling for cessation of hostilities on both sides.

But Lebanon objected that the draft stopped short of calling for a complete Israeli withdrawal from its territory.

Israeli operations in Lebanon continued, with air strikes on various targets around the country - including the port city of Tyre.

At least 10 Lebanese died in the strikes - including Ahmad Assi's brother, killed by an Israeli bomb on Sunday in Ansar, southern Lebanon.

With attacks on these fishing boats, livelihoods have been destroyed.

As the destruction of roadways and bridges continued, some parts of Lebanon are becoming virtually cut off from the outside world.

Many aid agencies cannot reach those most in need - or have insufficient guarantee of their workers' safety.

Protests against the Israeli offensive were held in Indonesia, Belgium and Egypt on Sunday - a day after tens of thousands took to the streets of London.
