UN: ‘Israeli’ strikes have killed 103 civilians in Lebanon since post-war ceasefire

The United Nations said Wednesday it had verified the deaths of 103 civilians in Lebanon since the November 2024 ceasefire with 'Israel', demanding a halt to the ongoing suffering.

The UN Human Rights Office called for renewed efforts for a durable truce, more than 10 months on from the agreed ceasefire.

"We are still seeing devastating impacts of jet and drone strikes in residential areas, as well as near UN peacekeepers in the south," UN rights chief Volker Turk said in a statement.

'Israel' has kept up near daily strikes on Lebanon, usually claiming it is targeting Hezbollah operatives or sites, despite the truce that sought to end more than a year of hostilities.
