Israeli attacks kill at least 41 in Lebanon on Monday

The Lebanese health ministry has released the official death toll from Israel’s attacks on the country on Monday.

At least 41 people were killed and 124 wounded by Israeli forces, raising the death toll to 1,356 since Israel began escalating strikes on Lebanon on 23 September. 

Monday's deaths included 21 people who were killed in an Israeli strike on the village of Aitou, located in the Christian-majority Zgharta district in northern Lebanon.

The latest figures bring the total number of deaths in Lebanon since last October to over 2,200, with 1,356 occurring since the start of Israel’s intensified air campaign in September.
