Israel faz operações militares ao longo da fronteira com o Líbano, diz agência
Summary

The conflict has resulted in substantial casualties, with reports indicating at least 52 deaths in Beirut. The situation has prompted mass evacuations in southern Lebanon, where families are fleeing the violence amidst an already dire economic crisis.
