International community's reaction to the growing number of civilian casualties
International humanitarian organizations call on the parties for an immediate ceasefire, emphasizing the unacceptability of attacks on residential areas and educational institutions.
The greatest concern is the fate of hundreds of injured in Iran and Lebanon, where the medical system is under colossal pressure due to a shortage of medicines and constant shelling. Experts note that the real number of victims may be significantly higher, as debris removal in some areas continues under the threat of new airstrikes.
