- An Israeli missile strike near a Lebanese Red Cross building killed five people and wounded eight, including four paramedics, according to the Lebanese health ministry, while rescuers searched for survivors.
- The latest Israel-Hezbollah conflict has killed around 3,500 people and displaced more than 1.2 million, as a UN commission reports widespread violations of human rights law by parties to the regional conflict.
