Lebanon death toll from Israeli strikes targeting Hezbollah rises to 2,897, ministry says
Israeli strikes against Hezbollah have killed at least 2,897 people and injured 13,150 in Lebanon, with 30 fatalities reported in the past 24 hours, Lebanon’s health ministry says, without differentiating between civilians and combatants.
Hezbollah began launching near-daily cross-border attacks against Israel on October 8. Israel dramatically intensified its counter-strikes against Hezbollah last month, including with a limited ground offensive in southern Lebanon.
