The Lebanese government has received an aid delivery of 25 tonnes of medicines and medical supplies from the United Nations, a minister said on Sunday.

The delivery from the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) is vital and will enable hospitals to continue to function, said Health Minister Firass Abiad.

Other UN agencies have already sent medical supplies to Lebanon, where Israel is currently undertaking a ground offensive against the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia.

Israel is aiming to push back the Shiite group and enable the return of some 60,000 residents evacuated from its northern border regions, amid soaring tensions in the Middle East.
