Israel ignores ceasefire to bomb 27 locations in Southern Lebanon in one day

On April 27, Israel bombed 27 different locations in Southern Lebanon in one day – in direct contravention of the [supposed ‘ceasefire](https://www.thecanary.co/global/2026/04/22/israel-lebanon-ceasefire-violations/)‘.
According to reporting from [Courtney Bonneau](https://x.com/cbonneauimages), a war correspondent currently in Lebanon, Israel attacked 17 locations by air. Additionally, it launched three drone attacks and seven artillery shelling strikes.

At the same time, the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) destroyed civilian homes and infrastructure in at least 6 towns. This included the towns of Aita al-Shaab and Shamaa.

Israel is a murderous regime
----------------------------
These attacks take the total number of people that Israel has murdered since it launched its illegal attack on Iran to 2,521. The attacks have injured an additional 7,804 people.

As if it wasn’t clear enough that Israel was targeting civilian infrastructure, it has damaged at least 16 hospitals in Lebanon since the start of its attacks on Iran. This has forced four of them to close.
The genocidal terrorist state has also murdered 100 healthcare workers and injured 233, including paramedics and hospital staff. Similarly, it has hit emergency service workers hard. A total of 130 attacks were recorded, resulting in damage to 117 vehicles.
Ceasefire?
----------
Of course, the current ceasefire applies to everyone except Israel. But this is nothing new – Israel has a [long track record](https://imeu.org/resources/resources/fact-sheet-israels-history-of-breaking-ceasefires/410) of ignoring ceasefire agreements.
Since October 2025 alone, Israel has [committed 2,575 violations](https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/2048010635078676828) of the Gaza ceasefire. This equates to an average of 13.2 violations per day.
Israel has [murdered](https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/2048010635078676828) 809 Palestinians, including 213 children, 89 women, and 23 older people. It has also wounded 2,267 people, more than half of whom were children, women or older people.
Additionally, Israel [continues to illegally hold](https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/2048010635078676828) approximately 34 square kilometres beyond the agreed withdrawal lines. It has also blocked repairs to electricity, water, and sewage infrastructure.
Similarly, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) and the Lebanese government reported more than 15,400 ceasefire violations by Israel since the 2024 ceasefire. During this time, Israel killed more than 370 people.
> From November 2024 there was a ceasefite in Lebanon which Israel violated 15,400 times according to the UN.
> I witnessed 4 months of Israeli violations personally.
> When Hezbollah finally fired back, the entire western media reported they “initiated” the current war.

On February 25, before Israel and the US launched their illegal and unprovoked attacks on Iran, Doctors Without Borders [reported that](https://prezly.msf.org.uk/msf-update-southern-lebanon-where-is-the-ceasefire):
> These attacks are driving repeated waves of displacement, damaging civilian infrastructure, including homes and essential services, and preventing thousands of people from returning to their villages to rebuild.
A pattern
---------
But only soon after the settler-colonial state was created, it [started violating](https://www.un.org/unispal/document/auto-insert-203977/) the UN-brokered Armistice Agreement. In the process, it killed and expelled Arab civilians from their land.
Since its very creation, Israel has not played by the rules of international law.
Still, to this day, Israel is continuing to make a mockery of the supposed ‘ceasefire’ and international law as a whole, at the expense of thousands of civilian lives.
As soon as Hezbollah retaliates or tries to protect Lebanese land from illegal Israeli attacks, Western media parrot IOF lines, calling it a “violation of the ceasefire”. Of course, Hezbollah aims at Israeli soldiers while the IOF blows up homes, schools, and hospitals.
Meanwhile, the whole world turns the other way while Israel ethnically cleanses Gaza, and now Lebanon, under the guise of ‘ceasefires’.
