WHO: Lebanon's hospitals may run out of supplies

Some of Lebanon's hospitals could run out of life-saving trauma medical kits within days according to a WHO representative. 

 Supplies are nearing depletion following mass casualties from large-scale Israeli strikes over the past day.

"Some of the trauma management supplies were in short (supply) and we may run out in a few days," Dr Abdinasir Abubaka, the WHO's representative in Lebanon said.

The life-saving trauma kits include bandages, antibiotics and anaesthetics to treat patients who sustained war-related injuries, he said.

"If we have another mass casualty, like what happened yesterday, it will be a disaster," Dr Abubakar said.

"Probably we will lose more lives just because we don't have enough supplies."

New evacuation orders have been issued for southern Beirut and its feared another barrage could hit the war torn country in the coming hours.

Halt to Iran attacks means Netanyahu's corruption trial set to resume

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's long-running corruption trial is expected to resume on Sunday, following the expiration of a state of emergency. 

The alert level, which closed schools and workplaces, was lifted on Wednesday evening as no incoming Iranian missiles were reported.

"With the lifting of the state of emergency and the return of the judicial system to work, hearings will resume as usual," a statement from the Israeli courts said, adding that they would take place between Sundays and Wednesdays.

Netanyahu, the first sitting Israeli prime minister to be charged with a crime, denies charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust brought in 2019 after years of investigations. 

His trial, which began in 2020 and could lead to jail terms, has been repeatedly delayed due to his official commitments.

Israeli attacks 'blatant violation' of ceasefire, says Iran's president

Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian has announced on X Israel's attacks on Lebanon constitute a "blatant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement". 

"This is a dangerous sign of deception and lack of commitment to potential agreements," President Pezeshkian said. 

"The continuation of these actions will render negotiations meaningless. Our fingers remain on the trigger."

He went on to say Iran will "never abandon its Lebanese sisters and brothers".
