JAKARTA - The number of deaths due to the Israeli attack in Lebanon has reached 2,702 people, with 8,311 others injured since March 2.

"The final data from the Israeli aggression from March 2 to May 5: 2,702 dead and 8,311 injured," the Lebanese Ministry of Health said, quoted by Sputnik, Wednesday, May 6.

According to the ministry's latest report, six people were killed on Tuesday. Israeli planes reportedly attacked a number of cities in southern Lebanon, including the outskirts of Tyre.

At the same time, the Lebanese Hezbollah group claimed to have launched 12 combat operations against the Israeli Zionist forces.

On April 16, US President Donald Trump announced that Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Israeli Authority Leader Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to start a 10-day ceasefire, which was later extended to three weeks.

Despite the ceasefire, Israel has continued to launch near-daily air and artillery strikes on southern Lebanon, which Hezbollah has responded to in the border area.
