Israel has demolished or severely damaged tens of thousands of structures across more than 55 towns and villages in southern Lebanon since late 2024, with destruction accelerating sharply after March 2026 when ground operations expanded to the Litani River. The World Bank estimates $11 billion in reconstruction needs, while human rights organizations say the demolitions — carried out with bulldozers and explosives outside active combat — constitute potential war crimes, a charge Israel rejects by citing Hezbollah's embedded military infrastructure beneath civilian areas.
