Lebanon's health ministry reports 356 fatalities, including 24 children, and over 1,200 injuries from Israeli strikes, marking the deadliest day in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict since 2006. Israel claims it has hit 1,300 Hezbollah targets, asserting the group is endangering Lebanese civilians by using residential areas for military operations. Lebanon's Prime Minister condemns the strikes as "a war of extermination," while the health minister warns of a new phase of indiscriminate warfare, prompting mass evacuations from southern regions. Fears of broader regional conflict are mounting as cross-border tensions escalate.
