[47378] Update on casualty data in Lebanon: 2,659 killed since the beginning of the current round of fighting

Data update: Implications of the fighting in Lebanon

The Lebanese Ministry of Health updated today (Friday) the casualty figures resulting from the current round of fighting. According to the data, since the start of the fighting, 2,659 people have been killed in Lebanon and 8,183 others have been wounded. The Abu Ali Express channel, known for an editorial line that sharply criticizes Hezbollah, Iran, and terror elements, noted that this is an increase of 41 deaths in the last day alone.

The data published by the Lebanese Ministry of Health was also shared by the Hadashot 360 channel, which reported the official update without additional commentary.

Simultaneously, the Hitalchdut HaZirot (Converging Fronts) channel presents a more complex picture, distinguishing between the Lebanese Ministry of Health's data and the IDF's data. According to the channel, the Lebanese Ministry of Health attributes the casualties to Israeli strikes starting from March 2. Conversely, according to IDF data published about two weeks ago, more than 1,800 Hezbollah terrorists have been eliminated since the beginning of "Operation Northern Arrows".
