When a pair of drone-fired missiles slammed into an apartment building in south Beirut on Tuesday, killing a top militant leader and his lieutenants, it appeared to mark a shift in Israel ’s war against Hamas . For three months, Israel has pressed a full-scale military invasion of Gaza , leveling much of the Strip and killing more than 22,000 people in its pursuit of the militants who planned and carried out the attacks on Israel .
