At least 32 people have been killed in Israeli attacks across Lebanon since dawn, as Israel continues to bomb the country despite ceasefire efforts, Al Jazeera reports.

Lebanon’s National News Agency says an Israeli raid hit a house in Sohmor in the western Bekaa while a family was inside, killing four people and injuring one. A child remains trapped under the rubble as rescue teams work to pull him out.

Lebanon’s Health Emergency Operations Centre also says an Israeli strike on Qanarit, in the Sidon district, has killed at least seven people and wounded 13 others in an initial toll.
