40 percent of Lebanese pupils displaced by Israeli bombardment: Ministry official says

Nearly half of Lebanon's 1.25 million school pupils have become displaced, a top education ministry official said Sunday, as Israel's intensifying strikes on Hezbollah strongholds forced more than one million people to flee.

"There are 1.25 million pupils in Lebanese schools," Director General of Education Imad Achkar said, and "40 percent of them of them have been displaced" by Israeli bombardment.
