52 Killed in Israeli Strikes on Lebanon

The death toll from Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut rose to 31 and 149 were injured on Monday, the Lebanese Health Ministry said. Earlier this morning, Israeli warplanes struck southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut. Hezbollah also said in a statement it launched missiles from southern Lebanon on an Israeli base south of Haifa according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.

In another report carried by Petra it also stated that the Lebanese Prime Minister’s Office’s Disaster Risk Management Unit announced in its report issued Monday that 52 people have been killed and 154 others injured as a result of ongoing military operations, bringing the total number of casualties amid escalating violence.

The report documented 221 hostile acts in the past 24 hours, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and further straining the already overburdened healthcare sector.

Official data revealed that approximately 6,000 families have been forced to flee their homes, bringing the total number of officially registered displaced persons to 28,586.

The report also indicated that 168 centers have been opened to receive displaced persons, but noted that only 92 of these centers currently have sufficient capacity, raising concerns about logistical challenges should the influx of displaced people continue.
