At least 22 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on Lebanon over the past 24 hours, according to the country's Health Ministry, defying a 45-day ceasefire deal.
The total death toll since March 2, when fighting between Israel and Hezbollah reignited, climbed to 3,042, the ministry said in a statement Tuesday, 24 hours after reporting 3,020 fatalities.
At least six people have been killed since early Tuesday, according to Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA).
In the Nabatieh region of southern Lebanon, an Israeli warplane leveled a house in the al-Mahfara neighborhood of Kfar Sir municipality, north of the Litani River, killing four people and wounding two, NNA reported.
In a separate incident in the municipality of Harouf, a drone strike targeted a vehicle parked near the municipal building, killing one person and wounding a municipal council member. At least two people in the vehicle were injured, including a man who was preparing to distribute bread to town residents when the attack occurred.
An Israeli drone also struck a motorcycle in the municipality of Froun near Bint Jbeil, killing one person, NNA added.
In the Tyre district, NNA said Israeli forces used three incendiary phosphorus bombs to target farmers harvesting watermelons at the al-Mansouri junction. The bombs landed near the farmers, who fled; no casualties were reported.
Israeli forces also set up a checkpoint at the Mari-Halta junction, detaining three Lebanese citizens and confiscating their phones.
Al Jazeera correspondent Zeina Khodr, reporting from Tyre where many are seeking shelter, said: 'You can see the scale of destruction here. Many people are displaced by the conflict, forced to leave their homes across southern Lebanon because of the continuous daily Israeli airstrikes.'
'You talk to people here, and they say they believe this is part of a strategy to depopulate southern Lebanon, making the area uninhabitable,' she added. 'This (renewed) conflict, now nearing its fourth month, continues and is only escalating. The scope of attacks is widening.'
Late Tuesday, the Israeli army issued coercive displacement orders for residents of 12 towns and villages across southern Lebanon, including Toura, Nabatieh At-Tahta, Habbouch, Bazouriyeh, Tayr Debba, Kfar Houneh, Ain Qana, Libbaya, Jebchit, Chehabiyeh, Burj Shemali, and Houmin al-Fawqa.
