It seems that the numbers of deaths under casualties and losses is different than the numbers in the referenced articles.

1. Please change "20 soldiers killed (3 non-combat)" to "14 soldiers killed (3 non-combat)" as these are the numbers mentioned in the sources. 2. Please change "89 civilians killed in Lebanon" to "82 civilians killed in Lebanon" as this is the number used in the source. 3. Please change "15 Syrian civilians killed" to "10 Syrian civilians killed". Source 31 is very outdated and mentions only 5 killed civilian and probably should be removed. Source 32 is more up to date and mentions 10 killed civilian. Guy Haddad 1 ( talk) 10:45, 1 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Please change in the infobox from "10 civilians killed in Israel" to "11 civilians killed in Israel". Source used is source 38. Guy Haddad 1 ( talk) 10:49, 1 June 2024 (UTC) reply

hezbollah death toll is 338/339 KIA. However I agree is not a all out war for it to be labeled as such. Conflict remains satisfactory term for now till however long. 109.144.19.150 ( talk) 17:17, 11 June 2024 (UTC) reply

That death toll is approx 342-344 as of now. Hezbollah 91.216.55.150 ( talk) 13:23, 14 June 2024 (UTC) reply

I would recommend changing the color of the dashed line to something that contrasts more with the blue, if possible. Alternatively I suggest coloring the area a different shade or striping it. Evaporation123 ( talk) 19:23, 11 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi, in the casualties it says: "19 soldiers killed (3 non-combat)". Please change it to "18 soldiers killed (3 non-combat)", as this is the number used in the refrenced article.

In the description of the amount of Israeli soldiers casualties the article is being cited as:

"Fifteen soldiers and a local security officer have also been killed in attacks claimed by the Hezbollah and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups on the border with Lebanon since the fighting started... The military's list also includes a soldier killed by friendly fire in the West Bank, a soldier killed due to malfunctioning ammunition on the Lebanon border, two soldiers killed in a tank accident in northern Israel, and a number of other deadly incidents amid the war but not directly related to the fighting."

But the "soldier killed by friendly fire in the West Bank" part isn't relevant to this article (and also covered by another wikipedia article here).

Additionaly, I suggest shortening the added description only to the relevnat parts:

"Fifteen soldiers and a local security officer have also been killed in attacks claimed by the Hezbollah and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups on the border with Lebanon since the fighting started... The military's list also includes ... a soldier killed due to malfunctioning ammunition on the Lebanon border, two soldiers killed in a tank accident in northern Israel"

you lost all credibility when you said "Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror groups" Waterlover3 ( talk) 11:54, 27 June 2024 (UTC) reply

They're quoting this article [1] Chomik! ( talk?) 13:29, 27 June 2024 (UTC) reply

This is the quote that already appears in this wiki article, not something that I wrote. Guy Haddad 1 ( talk) 07:59, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

I think the number includes the security officer killed. I clarified that in the infobox. Chomik! ( talk?) 14:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Are you sure? As I understand it, there are 15 soldiers and security officers that have been killed in combat. In addition, there are 3 that were killed due to non-combat incidents (but related to the Hezbollah-Israel conflict).

Anyway, thank you for the clarification that tou have made. Guy Haddad 1 ( talk) 08:05, 28 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi, there are some mistakes in Hezbollah and it's allies casualties:

1. Please change in Lebanon from 389 to 289 Hezbollah members. Reason: According to the source - "total death toll of Hezbollah fighters to 350". Reducing the 61 killed in Syria results in 289 not 389 (probably a typo).
2. Please change "450 Hezbollah members" to "350 Hezbollah members", for the same reason.
3. Please change "18 civilians killed in Syria" to "15 civilians killed in Syria". Reasons: Source 36: "since the war on Gaza in October ... two civilians dead" for 2023. Source 37: "13 civilians ... dead" for 2024. Together it sums up to 15.
