Israel has continued its bombings and ground assaults in Lebanon, with Hezbollah engaging the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) along the Lebanon-Israel border and launching rockets into northern Israel.
Israel has issued evacuation orders for a quarter of Lebanon’s land area, resulting in 900,000 people fleeing their homes. Of these, 600,000 are internally displaced, and 300,000 have left Lebanon, with a population of 5.4 million, according to the UN.
In recent Israeli bombings, five paramedics were killed in Tyre, bringing the death toll to over 2,000 and the number of injured to over 10,000 since the escalation of Israeli attacks in Lebanon a few weeks ago.
