At least 71 civilians, including 14 women and nine children, have been killed by Israeli forces in Lebanon since a ceasefire came into effect in November, according to Thameen Al-Kheetan, spokesperson for the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Al Jazeera reports.
He said in a statement published on the UN website that “the violence must stop immediately” and called for “prompt, independent and impartial investigations into all allegations of serious violations of international humanitarian law”.
“Those found responsible must be held to account,” Al-Kheetan added.
