Ceasefire Violations in Lebanon and Gaza (5 June)
Current number of ceasefire violations today:
Lebanon: Israeli strikes 32+ | Hezbollah strikes 13+
Gaza: Israeli strikes 7+
Current number of Israeli attacks outside ceasefires today:
West Bank: Israeli strikes 2+
Yesterday, the first day of this tracker, we recorded 53 Israeli strikes and 16 Hezbollah responses in Lebanon alone.
We did not include Gaza in that count. We should have, and regret the mistake of not including the Strip in yesterday's count. We are correcting that now, and Gaza will be recorded in daily ceasefire trackers from here on out.
Gaza operates under a different logic entirely than Lebanon, Israeli forces conduct strikes with no opposing military capacity and under conditions of complete aerial surveillance. There are no violations “from the other side” because there is no other side left capable of firing back. The record there runs in one direction only.
The same asymmetry applies in Lebanon, though less absolutely. Hezbollah’s strikes on 4 June were directed, with few exceptions, at Israeli military positions, vehicles, and personnel inside Lebanese territory. Israeli strikes showed no consistent pattern of targeting legitimate military objectives, with all but one of their 53 strikes targeting civilian areas.
This is the midday update, accurate as of 21:50 CET. The full day’s record will be published at midnight.
