In a devastating escalation of ongoing hostilities, Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon have claimed the lives of at least 40 people, including children. The attacks, targeting key locations such as Tyre and Baalbek, have led to extensive damage and tragic loss of life. Rescue operations are underway to identify victims through DNA testing.
