It’s time to end all Israeli hostilities in Lebanon

Published on

A new report from Oxfam in Lebanon finds that despite the announcement (and then extension) of a ceasefire agreement, Israeli attacks on Lebanon have continued unabated and Israeli forces continue to expand their occupation in southern Lebanon.

The number of people killed by Israeli attacks has continued to rise, with at least 380 individuals reportedly killed in less than a month since the onset of the ceasefire.

The total number of people killed since early March alone has reached 3,711, including 247 children and 132 health sector workers, whereas the number of people injured has reached 11,483, including 983 children and 393 health sector workers.

“

This is not the first case where Israel has been reported to have breached a ceasefire agreement, with similar patterns documented across the region, particularly in Gaza and previously in Lebanon after the 2024 ceasefire agreement.”

Violations are not limited to military operations and occupation, but extend to a range of other activities as well, including but not limited to surveillance-related activity, inflammatory rhetoric, and other actions that undermine civilian protection and prospects for a sustained end to hostilities, says the report.
