This is an incomplete account of the war between Israel and the Hizbullah Shiite guerillas in Southern Lebanon, as seen from the Israeli side. The war lasted between July 12 and August 14, 2006. It is commonly referred to as the Second Lebanon War in Israel, and as the July War in Lebanon.

During the war, Hizbullah have fired 3,970 rockets and missiles across Northern Israel, which killed 57 people (including 12 reserve soldiers), wounded hundreds, traumatized thousands, displaced about 500,000 people and threatened about 2 millions. The last Israeli victim of the war is a Haifa resident who died of severe wounds on August 29, 2007, more than a year after the war ended.

107 Israeli soldiers were killed in Lebanon during the war and 2 others were killed after the ceasefire. The last Israeli soldiers left Lebanon on October 1, 2006.

Estimates of the number of Lebanese killed in the war vary from about 850 to 1,200, of which roughly 500 were Hizbullah men.

On January 2007 the Israel Defence Force Cheif of Staff, Dan Halutz, resigned from office following a critical report about the Lebanon war. On June 2007 the Minister of Defence, Amir Peretz, was forced to resign after he lost his party leadership. The Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, has remained in office until September 2008, when he resigned due to allegations of corruption.
