The South Governorate suffered the highest casualties, with 48 dead and 168 injured in Ain Al-Delb and Tyre, according to the Ministry's statement on Sunday. These attacks followed a Friday airstrike on Beirut's densely populated southern suburbs, which killed Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Lebanon's Hezbollah group, involved in nearly a year of cross-border conflict with Israel.

The exhumation of the Hezbollah leader's intact body has led to growing speculation that Nasrallah died from suffocation in severe agony, Channel 12 News reported Sunday evening. According to Saudi Al Hadath news channel, the lack of ventilation in the area allowed gases from Air Force bombings to enter the room, ultimately causing his death by suffocation.

It was not immediately clear if Nasrallah was at the site, and Hezbollah did not comment on the report
