Earlier in the day, the ministry said that the strike killed 31, including three children. Another 68 people were injured.
"The death toll from the Israeli airstrike launched yesterday at a southern suburb of Beirut has reached 37," the ministry said in a statement.
On September 17 and 18, pagers and walkie-talkies exploded in parts of Lebanon. According to the country's health ministry, 37 people were killed and more than 3,000 injured. Hezbollah and the Lebanese authorities blamed Israel for the attack. Israeli authorities have neither confirmed nor denied their involvement.
Tensions between Israel and Lebanon have escalated after Israel started a military operation in the Gaza Strip in October 2023. The Israeli military and Hezbollah have been exchanging cross-border fire almost daily.
