According to the government, almost 300,000 people have crossed the border into Syria since the intensive Israeli attacks on targets of the Shia militia Hezbollah began last week. Israel's declared aim is to drive Hezbollah, which has been firing rockets at Israel on a daily basis for months, away from the border so that around 60,000 evacuated Israelis in the north of the country can return to their homes.
