Lebanon's death toll from Israeli strikes rises to 3,516

The death toll from Israeli attacks on Lebanon in the latest round of Israel-Hezbollah conflict that broke out on Oct 8, 2023 climbed to 3,516, with injuries rising to 14,929, said the Lebanon's Ministry of Public Health on Monday.

Beirut, the Lebanese capital, was again hit by an Israeli air strike on Monday, the ministry said that night.

The air strike on a residential building of Zuqaq al-Blat near local UN headquarters and Lebanon's parliament and prime minister's office killed five people and wounded 24, according to the ministry.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) issued a statement on the same day that Hezbollah fired rockets into northern and central Israel on Monday, killing at least one person and injuring many others.

The Israeli army said its air defenses intercepted projectiles coming from Lebanon over Tel Aviv, where a street was slammed by shrapnel.

Hezbollah launched more than 100 rockets into Israel that day, according to the Israeli army.

At least 20 people were killed and 57 others injured in Israeli airstrikes across Lebanon over the past 24 hours, according to official figures released on Friday.

The latest casualties bring the cumulative death toll to 1,021, with a total of 2,641 people wounded since the escalation of hostilities on March 2.

Meanwhile, displacement continues to rise sharply as ongoing strikes force more residents to flee their homes. A total of 134,616 displaced people are currently sheltering in 644 centers across the country, the figures show.

Efforts to accommodate displaced populations remain under strain as the humanitarian situation deteriorates amid continued airstrikes.

Hezbollah entered the confrontation on March 2 by launching rockets from southern Lebanon toward Israel for the first time since a ceasefire on Nov. 27, 2024, prompting Israel to carry out an intensified military campaign targeting multiple areas across the country.
