The devastating Israel-Hezbollah war has deepened Lebanon's education crisis, with further learning losses, resource shortages and little attention paid to quality instruction, according to a new study.

Israel said it struck targets in Lebanon on Monday evening after vowing to retaliate for an attack by Hezbollah on a military post, with both sides accusing each other of violating last week's ceasefire. At least nine people were killed by Israeli strikes on two southern Lebanese villages, according to the country's public health ministry.
