At least 37 people have been injured in Israeli attacks on the city of Tyre in southwestern Lebanon, the Lebanese Ministry of Health told the AFP news agency.

In total, over the past two days, at least 55 people have been killed and 164 injured in Lebanon, the ministry told the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

The Israeli military says it is targeting sites linked to the Iran-backed Shia militia Hezbollah. According to a statement from the military, over 220 Hezbollah members have been killed in the past week.

At the same time, a new round of peace talks is underway in Washington, D.C. A formal ceasefire has been in place between Lebanon and Israel since April 17.
