War death tolls are estimates, and exact comparisons between conflicts are difficult.
“Prior to the Gaza war, munitions deployed with this intensity and with this frequency would have been almost unheard-of,” Ms. Tripp said.
The Lebanese health ministry said that 94 women and 50 children were killed on Monday, or just over 25 percent of the total death toll.
Those numbers suggest that the number of civilian men killed in Lebanon on Monday exceeded the combined number of slain women and children.
And it is far higher than the average daily toll during the Syrian war in 2014, the deadliest year of that decade-long conflict.
