The death toll has risen to 100 people and more than 400 others have been injured in Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon, the Lebanese Ministry of Health said on Monday in an update to an earlier statement.

Lebanon's health ministry said at least 50 people were killed and more than 300 wounded, including children, women and medics, in Israeli strikes on Monday that targeted southern Lebanon.

Israel called for civilians in Lebanon to evacuate or move away from properties it says could be storing weapons for Hezbollah.
