Israeli airstrikes on Monday resulted in the deaths of 492 individuals in Lebanon, according to Lebanese authorities. The strikes affected regions in southern and eastern Lebanon. The death toll included more than 90 women and children, marking the deadliest day of conflict in Lebanon since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.

The Israeli military had warned residents in southern and eastern Lebanon to evacuate. The warnings preceded a broadening air campaign targeting Hezbollah. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed they had launched a variety of strikes on what they described as Hezbollah military infrastructure.

Lebanese health officials report that the airstrikes caused significant casualties. Over 1,600 people were injured, adding to the widespread devastation. Hospitals in the affected regions are overwhelmed, struggling to provide adequate care for the injured. Medical facilities have requested additional supplies and support from international aid organizations.

The IDF stated that the strikes aimed to neutralize Hezbollah’s capacity to launch attacks on Israel. They also accused Hezbollah of using civilian areas as shields for their operations. Reports from the ground indicate that several residential areas were hit, contributing to the high number of civilian casualties.

The Lebanese government condemned the airstrikes as an act of aggression and called for an immediate ceasefire. The Lebanese Prime Minister called on the international community to intervene and stop the hostilities. In a televised address, he described the attacks as a violation of Lebanese sovereignty and international law.

The United Nations has expressed deep concern over the escalation of violence. The UN Secretary-General urged both parties to exercise restraint and return to negotiations. The Secretary-General also highlighted the humanitarian impact of the conflict, stressing the need for immediate assistance to affected civilians.

In response to the airstrikes, Hezbollah launched several rocket attacks into northern Israel. The group claimed the attacks targeted military installations. Israel reported minor injuries and damage to property, but no fatalities. The Israeli government reiterated its stance that it would continue to defend itself against what it termed as terrorist activities by Hezbollah.

The international community is watching the situation closely. Several countries have called for an emergency session of the UN Security Council to address the growing crisis. Diplomatic efforts are underway to broker a ceasefire and prevent further loss of life.

The ongoing conflict has caused significant displacement. Thousands of residents from southern and eastern Lebanon have fled their homes. Many are seeking refuge in safer areas, exacerbating the already dire humanitarian situation. International relief agencies are mobilizing to provide shelter, food, and medical aid to the displaced populations.

Local sources report that the airstrikes have also resulted in substantial damage to infrastructure. Roads, bridges, and communication networks in the affected areas have been severely damaged. Efforts to assess and repair the damage are ongoing, but the scale of destruction is hampering recovery efforts.
