Lebanon's health system is under severe strain after nearly 9,000 people have been wounded in Israeli attacks since March, according to Al Jazeera reporting.

The cumulative toll has left hospitals and emergency medical services struggling to meet demand.

The attacks have continued for months, producing a steady flow of wounded that has overwhelmed available resources in many areas.
