Bengaluru: Congress president Sonia Gandhi has arrived in Karnataka to unite former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president D K Shivakumar, said BJP state president Nalin Kumar Kateel.

In a tweet on Tuesday, the BJP leader said that Sonia Gandhi came to Karnataka on Monday but her two-day visit to Mysuru was not for participation in the Bharat Jodo Yatra for the sake of her son’s political career.

Kateel added, “A year will not suffice for Sonia Gandhi to unite Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar, who are both dreaming for the chief minister’s seat. I expect her to advise her son to unite both the Karnataka leaders before attempting any other sort of unification.

Deir al-Balah, Nov 1: Israeli airstrikes on Friday killed at least 24 people in northeastern Lebanon, the country's news agency said, raising the death toll from eight there.

It was the latest deadly toll in the area since the conflict between Israel and the Lebanese group Hezbollah escalated last month.

Israel's military has said that its operation in Lebanon is targeting Hezbollah's military infrastructure.

Lebanon's state National news Agency reported four airstrikes in different villages across country's northeast, saying rescuers were still searching for survivors in Younine, a town in the Bekaa Valley, from the rubble of a targeted house.

Hussein Haj Hassan, a Lebanese lawmaker representing the region in Baalbek-Hermel region, said that 60,000 people have already fled their homes in the area due to Israeli bombardment.
