HeadlineApr 27, 2026

Lebanon’s Health Ministry reports Israeli strikes killed 14 people and wounded 37 others on Sunday, including two children, despite the U.S.-brokered ceasefire. The Israeli military also ordered residents to evacuate seven towns north of the Litani River, beyond the so-called buffer zone Israeli forces have occupied. Meanwhile, Hezbollah said it had attacked Israeli troops inside Lebanon, as well as the rescue force that came to evacuate them. One Israeli soldier was killed, and six more were wounded. More than 2,500 people have been killed in Israeli strikes across Lebanon since March 2, including 177 children and 100 medics, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. More than 1.2 million people, nearly 22% of Lebanon’s population, have been displaced.
