Israel's attacks on Lebanon devastated the country's economy and claimed hundreds of civilian lives.


More than 1,130 Lebanese, mostly civilians, were killed in the 33-day Israeli military operation, in which at least 3,600 were wounded.

One third of the 1,025 civilians killed were children under the age of 12.

Estimates put the number of Lebanese displaced by the war at around 915,000; with at least $6 billion of damage to the country.

Around 630 kilometers of highways, 23 oil stations, 145 bridges, 7,000 homes, and 900 factories have been destroyed in the Israeli attacks targeting Lebanese infrastructure."
