Lebanon coordinates DNA tests to identify missing in Israel strikes.
Lebanese authorities have urged the families of people who went missing in Israeli strikes to submit their DNA samples at specialised centres to identify the remains of their loved ones.
“To help families of those who went missing following the Israeli aggression on Lebanon and to make the process of identifying victims and their remains smoother”, families should head to centres affiliated with the judicial police “to conduct DNA tests”, the police said in a statement.
For the past week, Israel has heavily bombed the country’s east, south and southern Beirut suburbs, killing hundreds of people and displacing up to one million.
On Saturday, Lebanon’s Health Minister Firas Abiad said bodies and body parts were still under the rubble.
Social media users have, meanwhile, called for help finding missing relatives.
