Israel’s Health Ministry said on Sunday that 5,768 people have been evacuated to hospitals since the start of “Operation Roaring Lion” on Feb. 28.

Of those, 137 remain hospitalized, including one in critical condition, 15 in serious condition, 37 in satisfactory condition and 84 in good condition.

In the past 24 hours, 148 people were admitted—one in serious condition, eight in moderate condition and 115 in good condition—along with 24 treated for anxiety, according to the ministry.

A total of 18 civilians in Israel have been killed in Iranian and Hezbollah attacks since the war began on Feb. 28, according to a March 26 update from the Alma Research and Education Center. One man was killed and 13 others were injured by Iranian missile strikes on central Israel over the weekend.
