Lebanon’s Health Ministry says the death toll from Israel’s military campaign has climbed to 4,328, with another 12,230 people injured since fighting intensified in March.
The latest figures reflect the continuing impact of the conflict, which has caused widespread destruction across southern Lebanon and forced thousands of families from their homes.
Humanitarian Toll Continues to Grow
Health officials say casualties have continued to rise as Israeli air strikes and military operations persist in several parts of the country.
Hospitals and emergency services remain under pressure as they deal with a steady flow of wounded civilians and the growing humanitarian needs of affected communities.
Israeli Forces to Remain Near the Border
Israeli authorities have said their troops will continue operating inside a security zone stretching roughly 10 kilometres (six miles) into southern Lebanon.
Officials say the military presence will remain in place as long as Hezbollah continues to maintain armed positions near the border.
Violence Persists Despite Ceasefire
Although a ceasefire agreement is officially in effect, military activity has not completely stopped.
Israeli forces continue to carry out air strikes and demolition operations in villages close to the border, while residents in many areas remain unable to return to their homes because of ongoing security concerns.
Uncertain Path Ahead
The continuing violence has raised fresh concerns about the stability of the ceasefire and the possibility of further escalation.
As both sides maintain their positions, humanitarian organisations are warning that the conflict continues to place civilians at serious risk while delaying recovery efforts in the affected regions.
