The Lebanese Health Ministry said Sunday that 20 people were killed and 46 injured in Israeli attacks over the past day, bringing the total casualties since March 2 to 2,679 dead and 8,229 wounded. The strikes are the latest breaches of the temporary ceasefire brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump, which began April 17 and was extended until May 17.

Israel’s intensified operations in Lebanon, launched after Hezbollah’s March 2 strike, have displaced more than 1.6 million people. The figures highlight the worsening humanitarian crisis and the limits of ceasefire enforcement.
