Israel’s aerial attack on Lebanon has killed scores of people, with residential buildings levelled across the country’s south and east and in the capital Beirut.
On Sunday, the Lebanese health ministry said 105 people were killed in air raids across the country.
In south Lebanon, at the forefront of the conflict with Israel, the ministry reported at least 60 people killed in total on Sunday.
The toll has since climbed after more bodies were recovered from a five-storey building which collapsed after being hit by an Israeli airstrike on the village of Ain el Delb near the coastal city of Sidon.
At least 45 people were killed in the massacre.
Several families displaced from other parts of south Lebanon were sheltering in the building.
One of those killed in Ain el Delb was a young Lebanese woman called Julia Ramadan, who had reportedly gone with her mother to deliver aid to those displaced when Israel struck the building.
The two reportedly spent hours underneath the rubble before passing away.
Ramadan had shared a social media post hours before she died asking people if they could help donate to a family of 18 in Sidon. The post has widely been shared online since her death.
In the Baalbek and Hermel districts in eastern Lebanon, towns and villages were rocked by heavy explosions known as 'fire belts' – a series of intense airstrikes extended for a longer period of time, lasting up to an hour or so.
Sounds of the airstrikes could be heard across the Beqaa Valley.
Locals there have pleaded to authorities to help them recover bodies from beneath the rubble of destroyed buildings, with some sharing posts on social media complaining that the media wasn’t paying much attention to them as opposed to other regions like south Lebanon or Beirut.
At least 33 people were killed in the Sunday airstrikes in the Baalbek-Hermel region.
In other parts of the Beqaa Valley. at least nine were reported killed on Sunday.
The village of Jeb Jannine in the Western Beqaa district was hit for the first time as Israel claimed it targeted an official from the Sunni Jamaa Islamiya group. He was killed along with his wife and son.
Three people were also killed in the Ghbeiry suburb just south of Beirut on Sunday, and later into the night an airstrike targeted a residential building within the administrative borders of the capital city for the first time, killing at least three members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
The PFLP has been largely dorman and not claimed any rocket attacks on Israel since border clashes erupted on October 8 last year.
Israeli strikes across Lebanon have killed at least 1,700 people – including combatants and civilians – in just under a year of fighting, the majority in the past two weeks, including 104 children and 194 women, according to government figures, although the health minister says this is an underestimate because many bodies have been pulverised.
