The Lebanese death toll from the ongoing Israeli attacks had risen to 2,306 since October of last year, with 10,698 others injured, said the Lebanese Health Ministry on Sunday.

On Saturday alone, the Israeli attacks killed 51 Lebanese and injured 174 others, according to the ministry.

The ministry said the Israeli raids had resulted in 14 deaths and 63 injuries in southern Lebanon, and 10 deaths and 50 injuries in Nabatieh.

It added that three people had been killed and 11 others wounded in Bekaa, with 13 injuries reported in Baalbek-Hermel.

It also noted that 22 people had been killed and 33 others injured in Mount Lebanon, while two people had been killed and four others injured in north Lebanon.

In addition, unnamed Lebanese military sources reported on Sunday that an Israeli warplane fired four air-to-ground missiles at a house in Mayfadoun village deep in southern Lebanon, killing seven civilians and wounding one other.

Since Sept. 23, the Israeli military has been carrying out an extensive air campaign in Lebanon, dubbed "Arrows of the North," in a dangerous escalation with Hezbollah. Since Oct. 8, 2023, Hezbollah and Israeli forces have been exchanging fire along the Lebanese-Israeli border, stoking fears of a wider conflict as the war between Hamas and Israel continues in Gaza.

China's development of green industries and the country's initiative of building a unified national market have made steady progress over the first three quarters of 2024, according to the data published by the State Taxation Administration on Sunday.

The tax data highlighted that the development of green industries has gathered pace in Jan-Sept, reflecting a resilient and diversified economic landscape.

Sales revenue in the ecological protection and environmental governance sectors surged by 11.4 percent, while the green technology services sector, including renewable energy and energy-saving solutions, witnessed a growth of approximately 20 percent. As China's broader strategy has continued emphasis on transition toward a more sustainable and innovative paradigm, sales in the clean energy sector, including solar, wind, and hydropower, maintained a rapid growth.

The transportation and logistics sector also registered faster growth, with sales revenue rising by 10 percent year on year. In particular, the growth in multimodal transport and freight forwarding services saw increases of 33.5 percent and 11.3 percent, respectively. The transportation sector in Sept alone experienced a 10.6 percent growth.

Moreover, interprovincial sales volume rose by 2.5 percent, outpacing the overall growth rate of national enterprise sales revenue by 1.1 percent, reflecting a steady progress in building a unified national market.

China on April 10, 2022 unveiled guidelines for accelerating the building of a unified national market, envisioning breaking local protection and market fragmentation and unblocking key sticking points that weigh on economic circulation, as part of a wide-ranging push for an effectively regulated, fairly competitive and fully open market across the country.
