Lebanon’s health ministry said on Thursday that 3,961 people had been killed and 16,520 wounded in more than a year of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, including two months of all-out war.

“The total number of dead and wounded since the start of the aggression until Tuesday reached 3,961 dead and 16,520 wounded,” a ministry statement said, adding that the increased numbers were also due to “dead being removed from under the rubble”.
