At least 45 people were killed and 110 injured by the Israeli strikes in the last 24 hours in various areas of Lebanon, the Lebanese Ministry of Health announced today.
Since the start of the war in the Gaza Strip in October 2023, Israeli attacks in Lebanon have claimed the lives of 2,865 people and wounded 13,047, according to updated figures from the Ministry of Health.
Due to the hostilities between the Israeli army and Hezbollah fighters, more than 500,0000 displaced people crossed the border and took refuge in Syria.
Among the victims are six rescuers from organizations close to Hezbollah and its ally Amal, who were killed in various Israeli raids in southern Lebanon, according to the health ministry.
Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati said the Israeli army’s orders to evacuate towns and villages constituted a “threat” against “Lebanese civilians” and “a war crime, which is added to the series of crimes committed by the enemy”.
Orders to evacuate areas
Many residents, including Palestinian refugees from the Rashidiye camp near Tyre, left the area earlier, following the Israeli evacuation order. The Palestinian refugee camp is about 5 km from Tire and is considered one of the largest and most densely populated in the country.
The evacuation call, released by the Israeli army’s spokesman for Arabic speakers, Avihai Andrai, concerned eight villages whose residents were to flee “to the north of the Awali River,” more than 60 kilometers from the border. with Israel.
In the east, a new evacuation order was issued a few hours later for residents of the town of Baalbek and the nearby villages of Duris and Ain Burdai. Avihai Andrai confirmed that the Israeli military intended to “hit Hezbollah’s infrastructure, interests, facilities and military means.” The ANI agency reported that there were four strikes in the village of Duris and the outskirts of Baalbek.
