Lebanon's Health Ministry reported that seven people, including a child and a pregnant woman, were killed and 46 others injured in Israeli strikes on the city of Tyre. The strikes destroyed buildings and trapped residents, hampering rescue efforts. Israel has been accused of adopting a scorched-earth policy, destroying 22 border towns out of 29 locations along the 120 km front. The cost of reconstruction is estimated to reach $4.2 billion. The Supreme Islamic Shariah Council called for an immediate ceasefire and urged the UN Security Council to implement UN Resolution 1701 in full.
