Lebanon Reports 4,057 Killed in Israeli Attacks Since March 2

Lebanon's Health Ministry says Israeli attacks since March 2 have killed at least 4,057 people and wounded 12,121 others. The ministry also raised the toll in Israeli attacks on Friday from 47 to a final count of 83 dead and 141 wounded. The majority of casualties occurred in southern Lebanon, with additional deaths reported in the country's east.

Israeli broadcaster Channel 12 reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz ordered the Israeli army to cease fire in southern Lebanon without withdrawing from occupied areas. The decision was made in coordination with the United States, the broadcaster said.

Hezbollah stated that Israel has committed more than 300 violations and breaches of the ceasefire since dawn on Friday, including air strikes, phosphorus shells, and cluster bombs. The group called on countries, especially the United States, to pressure Israel to implement agreements and stop attacks.

Command said 55 merchant ships transited the Strait of Hormuz on the day of reporting. The command stated that safe passage remained intact and that more than 17 million barrels of oil moved to global markets. Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said an Iranian delegation would travel to Switzerland to follow up on implementation of commitments under the interim agreement with the United States.

Baghaei stated the trip aims to press for fulfillment of obligations before final agreement negotiations can begin.
