A protester wearing a face covering attends a national demonstration for Palestine and Lebanon, in central London, on November 30, 2024. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened Hezbollah on November 28, 2024 with an "intensive war" if it breaches a fragile Lebanon ceasefire, which on its second day is straining under pressure from both sides. Lebanon says at least 3,961 people have been killed in the country since October 2023, most of them in recent weeks. Since Hamas's October 7 attack last year that triggered the war, Israel's campaign in Gaza has killed at least 44,382 people, most of them civilians, according to data from the Hamas-run territory's health ministry, which the United Nations considers reliable.
