The Lebanese Ministry of Health has reported that the death toll from Israeli strikes on Lebanon has climbed to at least 100 people, with over 400 individuals wounded. This escalation in violence comes as Israel conducted its most intense air campaign against what it claims are Hezbollah targets in Lebanon since the conflict in Gaza began in October.
The situation is particularly concerning as it remains unclear how many of the casualties are civilians versus Hezbollah militants. Reports indicate that many of the Israeli strikes have targeted residential areas where Hezbollah maintains a strong presence. Local media outlets have also highlighted that women and children are among the victims of these attacks.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has raised fears of further escalation and civilian casualties. The international community is closely monitoring the situation and calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities to prevent further loss of life and suffering.
