Hospitals located in Beirut’s southern suburbs will be evacuated, according to the health ministry of Lebanon.
Hospitals in unaffected locations were warned not to accept non-urgent cases any longer.
This came following intense Israeli airstrikes in the region.
A ministry statement on Saturday called on hospitals unaffected by Israeli strikes to “stop receiving non-emergency cases until the end of next week in order to make space to receive patients from hospitals in Beirut’s southern suburbs which will be evacuated due to the developments in the aggression”, Agence France-Presse reported.
An updated strike toll has not yet been released by the health ministry.
