At least 19 people were killed and another 108 were injured in the last 24 hours by Israeli attacks against different parts of Lebanon, bringing the total number of deaths since the outbreak of violence between the Jewish State and the Shiite group Hezbollah to 2,672.

The Emergency Operations Center of the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health said in a statement this Sunday that, with the deaths recorded on Friday, there are 2,672 dead and 12,468 injured since the beginning of the Israeli aggression against Lebanon.

The 19 deaths recorded on Saturday occurred mainly in the southern regions of the country, where 7 people died and another 48 were injured, in the hard-hit southern district of Nabatiye (10 dead and 55 injured) and in the eastern Bekaa Valley, where two people died and five others were injured by the bombings.

Report

The Ministry had reported shortly before the murder of three paramedics in an Israeli attack today against a center of the Al Risala Society of Health Ambulances – Civil Defense in the town of Ain Baal, in southern Lebanon.

In total, 167 health workers have lost their lives and another 275 have been injured of varying severity since the outbreak of violence on October 8, 2023, one day after the start of the war in the Gaza Strip.

This constitutes “a continuing war crime for which the international community must assume its responsibilities and put an end to it,” the ministry said.
