Heavy Israeli airstrikes hit southern suburbs of Beirut

The World Bank estimates the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah conflict has led to over €8 billion in losses, primarily resulting from €3.2 billion in infrastructure damage and €4.8 billion in economic impact, emphasizing the severe toll on both physical and economic structures over the 13-month period.

Israeli airstrikes have demolished hundreds of buildings and homes across Lebanon, resulting in the displacement of thousands of residents. Reports indicate that these airstrikes have continued relentlessly, hitting civilian structures and prompting warnings from the Israeli military regarding targeted 'Hezbollah facilities and interests.'

The tragic consequences of the airstrikes are evident in the recent events in Baalbek, where at least 13 individuals were killed in an attack on a civil defense center. The Lebanese Civil Defense expressed deep sorrow over the loss of their employees and volunteers, underlining the continuing humanitarian implications of the conflict.
