The Israeli military has destroyed three additional schools in southern Lebanon, bringing the total number of completely demolished schools in the country to at least 20, according to an Al Jazeera report on Sunday. Lebanese Minister of Education and Higher Education Rima Karami stated that Israeli forces looted the schools before demolishing them with explosives, reducing the buildings to “piles of ashes.” UNESCO reported in June that 17 schools had been completely destroyed and over 100 damaged, with approximately 500,000 Lebanese children out of school due to the conflict. Karami urged the international community to pressure Israel to cease attacks on educational institutions.
