An Israeli airstrike on a healthcare center in Lebanon has claimed the lives of three more paramedics, according to the country’s health ministry.
The air raid targeted a civil defense team of a charity organization, the Islamic Health Authority, in Adloun, Lebanon’s Sidon district on Sunday.
The health ministry reiterated that the regime’s targeting of paramedics is a “war crime,” which adds to the “violence and inhumanity” of its hostilities in Lebanon.
Israel’s airstrikes on several towns in the Lebanese southern district of Tyre claimed the lives of at least 12 paramedics and civil defense volunteers on Saturday. Three paramedics were also injured.
According to the country’s health ministry, the victims of Saturday’s attack on the town of Deir Qanoun Ras Al-Ain were all volunteers from charity organizations.
The attacks on the city also killed a civilian and wounded 12 others.
Dozens of people were also killed Sunday in a series of airstrikes in eastern and southern Lebanon, the health ministry said.
