BEIRUT, Lebanon, March 8, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Israeli strikes on Lebanon have
killed 394 people in the past week, including 83 children and 42 women, the
country's health minister said Sunday.
Rakan Nassereddine also said at a press conference that nine rescue workers
were among the dead, condemning attacks on medical teams and ambulances.
A previous toll announced on Saturday by the minister had put the number of
dead at 294 since Lebanon was drawn into the regional war last Monday between
Iran, Israel and the United States.
