The Independent | Live: View of Beirut as intense Israeli strikes on Hezbollah kill 274 including children @theindependent | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
At least 274 people have been killed and more than 1,024 wounded, including 39 woman and 21 children, in Israeli strikes that targeted southern Lebanon, the health ministry have said.
The Israeli military said it struck 300 targets in southern and northeastern Lebanon as it steps up pressure against the Hezbollah militant group. It is the deadliest barrage since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.
They have unleashed the most widespread wave of air strikes against Hezbollah on Monday and warned Lebanese citizens to evacuate areas where the armed group was storing weapons, moving closer to all-out war.
“We are deepening our attacks in Lebanon, the actions will continue until we achieve our goal to return the northern residents safely to their homes,” Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said.
