Lebanon’s health ministry reported that Israeli attacks since March have killed 2,969 people and injured 9,112 others across the country. The latest update, released on Saturday, covers incidents from March 2 to May 16, during which continuous strikes targeted multiple areas.
According to the report, Israeli bombardments have hit border regions and residential zones, intensifying Lebanon’s humanitarian crisis. Local health officials warned that the death toll could rise further as many of the injured remain in critical condition.
Despite repeated calls from the international community to end the ongoing conflict, the situation has shown little improvement, the report noted.
