User:Dlv999/2006 Lebanon War

Casualties

 * An estimated 1,191 civilians were killed, mainly from Shia communities, both in southern Lebanon and in the Shia suburbs of Beirut, in addition to an unknown number of Hezbollah militants.
 * Some 1,200 civilians (almost a third of them children) died, 4,000 were wounded, and a million were displaced.
 * These attacks resulted in 1,183 civilian fatalities.
 * By the war’s end, 43 Israeli and 1,109 Lebanese civilians had been killed. The military casualties included 118 Israeli and 28 Lebanese soldiers, and roughly 200 Hezbollah fighters. Israel claims to have killed as many as 500 Hezbollah militants in July and August of 2006, but independent and reliable sources judge this number to be too high.
