Lebanon’s civil defense says rescue worker killed in Israeli strike

Lebanon’s civil defense says an Israeli strike on southern Lebanon killed a member of the rescue organization this morning.

In a statement, the civil defense says the rescue worker was killed “as a result of an Israeli strike that targeted him” on the road between Kfar Shouba and Kfar Hamam in southern Lebanon.

Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency identifies the civil defense worker as Hafez Yahya, from Kfar Shouba.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF.
