Lebanon's health ministry said Saturday that Israeli attacks since March 2 when the latest Israel-Hezbollah war began had reached 4,057 dead, including 135 health and emergency workers, and 12,121 people wounded.

Rescuers continue to clear rubble in some areas, so the number of dead and injured may rise

The ministry also said Israeli artillery used phosphorus munitions during shelling of the hills of Ali al-Taher, Jabal al-Rafi'a, and the Iqlim al-Tuffah area
