Tragedy strikes as 14 paramedics are killed in Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon, with the Health Ministry confirming the devastating news. The paramedics lost their lives while responding to calls for help in various towns in the south, including Taybeh, Dir Siriane, Tayr Debba, and Houmine el-Faouqa. Al-Murtada Hospital in Baalbek also suffered significant damage, forcing its temporary closure.
Questioning the intentions behind these attacks, the ministry emphasized that paramedics are not involved in military operations but are dedicated to providing essential medical assistance. Expressing frustration over the lack of response from the international community, the ministry urged for immediate action to stop the escalating violence.
The ongoing conflict between Hezbollah and Israel has resulted in a devastating toll on civilian lives, with recent Israeli offensives targeting key Hezbollah figures, including leader Hassan Nasrallah. Lebanon mourns the loss of Nasrallah and condemns the relentless attacks that have displaced thousands and claimed hundreds of innocent lives.
