Israeli strikes in south Lebanon kill 8, including paramedic — Lebanon Health Ministry

Israeli strikes in south Lebanon killed at least eight people today, one of them a paramedic, the country’s Ministry of Health says.

In separate statements, the ministry says a strike in Tyre district killed three people and wounded 19 more, while another attack in Sidon district killed four.

A third strike in Bint Jbeil district hit a gathering point for the Risala Scouts — a rescue organization run by Hezbollah ally the Amal movement — killing a paramedic and wounding 13 other people.

The IDF has warned several times in recent weeks that Hezbollah is using ambulances and medical facilities in Lebanon for military purposes.
