It has also caused an estimated $8.5bn (\u00a36.7bn) in economic damages and losses, according to the World Bank.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cp8xppkrdd7o\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the conflict intensified in late September, Lebanese authorities have said any deal should be based&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":48589,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[646,475,2326,1300,389,2306],"class_list":["post-48586","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-stories","tag-ceasefire","tag-envoy","tag-heads","tag-hezbollah","tag-israel","tag-progress"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.0 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
