At least 564 people have been killed and 1,848 others injured in Israeli attacks in Lebanon since Oct. 8, the Health Ministry said on Thursday.
A ministry statement added that nearly 110,099 people have been displaced from their areas due to Israeli bombardment.
Israel still occupies the Shebaa Farms in southern Lebanon as well as the Golan Heights in Syria and the Palestinian West Bank.
Tension has escalated along the Lebanese-Israeli border since last October amid an exchange of cross-border attacks between Hezbollah and Tel Aviv.
The escalation comes against the backdrop of a deadly Israeli onslaught on Gaza which has killed nearly 40,300 people since Oct. 7, 2023 following an attack by the Palestinian resistance group Hamas.
