The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported on the 24th that since Israel launched military operations against Lebanon on March 2 of this year, 3,151 people have died and 9,571 have been injured.

According to Israeli sources on the 24th, the Israel Defense Forces struck Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon that day. Earlier, an IDF spokesperson issued a warning, urging residents of about 10 villages and towns in southern Lebanon to evacuate.

The "ceasefire" agreement between Lebanon and Israel took effect on April 17. Since the ceasefire came into effect, the IDF has continued to launch attacks on the grounds that Hezbollah has violated the ceasefire agreement, and has dismantled and destroyed what it calls "Hezbollah military infrastructure" in the southern region it occupies.
