Meanwhile, Israel has continued to mount the placement of ground troops in southern Lebanon, ignoring international calls for de-escalation amid rising tensions in the region. Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati warned that this nation has moved into “one of the most dangerous phases of its history.”.
The Israeli military claims that it is conducting “limited and pinpoint raids” on Hezbollah in response to this coming Friday’s killing of the terrorist group’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Heavy barrages by intense Israel airstrikes pummeled several neighborhoods in southern Beirut, with at least 95 people killed in a single attack Monday, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.
At least 13 people, including seven children, were killed by an Israeli strike on the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Since fighting broke out in October, Gaza has reported at least 41,615 people killed and 96,359 injured in Israeli airstrikes. Meanwhile, in Israel, there have been at least 1,139 deaths related to the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, along with more than 200 taken hostage. The unabated violence is growing day by day, with grave concerns about the humanitarian situation in the region.
