Lebanon says 52 killed in Israeli strikes in country’s east
Lebanon’s health ministry says 52 people had been killed in Israeli strikes today in the country’s east, attacks for which the Israeli army had not issued evacuation warnings.
Without differentiating between civilians and combatants, the ministry reports “52 people killed and 72 wounded in an updated toll of today’s Israeli enemy strikes on the Baalbek-Hermel region.”
Twelve of the victims were killed in the village of Amhaz, it said, while nine others were killed in Yunin and eight in Bednayel.
Israel has been targeting Hezbollah sites throughout Lebanon in response to the terror group’s near-daily attacks against Israel since October 8, 2023.
