3 killed in Israeli strike near Sidon, Lebanese health ministry says

Lebanon’s health ministry says three people were killed and nine wounded in an Israeli strike on Haret Saida, a densely populated area near the southern city of Sidon.

Israel has been carrying out airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in Lebanon alongside its ground offensive in the south of the country.

“The Israeli enemy’s raid on Haret Saida resulted in an initial death toll of three people killed and nine others injured,” the ministry says.

The strike was apparently not preceded by an Israeli evacuation warning.
