The Israeli army on Monday night claimed to have struck more than 1,100 Hezbollah targets in the past 24 hours. In a statement, the Israeli army said it used more than 1,400 different munitions in some 650 strikes by its fighter jets over Lebanon.
The targets included Hezbollah buildings and infrastructure storing launchers, drones and rockets. Also on Monday (23/9) evening, Lebanese health authorities said at least 356 people, including 24 children, had been killed in Israeli strikes since Monday morning, while 1,246 others were injured, and thousands of civilians were forced to flee their homes.
Hezbollah and Israel have been engaged in a cross-border war since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza, which has killed more than 41,400 people, mostly women and children, following a cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7.
The international community has warned against an attack on Lebanon, as the assault raises fears of a regional escalation of the Gaza conflict. (I-2)
