Lebanon was drawn into the war on March 2 when Tehran-backed Hezbollah launched rockets at Israel to avenge the killing of the Islamic republic's supreme leader.

"So far, over 2,000 terror targets have been targeted, including approximately 120 Hezbollah command posts, over 100 weapons storage facilities, and over than 130 missile launchers," the Israeli military said.

"In addition, over 570 Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated," the army said.

Israel has mainly struck targets in south Lebanon and suburbs of Beirut that have long been Hezbollah strongholds, issuing evacuation warnings for civilians that Lebanon says have rendered more than a million people displaced.

Israeli troops are also fighting in southern Lebanon in what the army says are "targeted ground operations".

Lebanon's health ministry said Thursday that Israeli attacks have killed 1,001 people in the country since the latest war erupted.
