Lebanon: Three people were killed, including a journalist who later succumbed to her injuries, and two others were wounded following two airstrikes carried out by Israeli warplanes in southern Lebanon.
According to Qatar News Agency, the Emergency Operations Center of Lebanon Ministry of Public Health stated that an Israeli strike on the town of Yahmar Al Shaqif in the Nabatieh district of southern Lebanon resulted in the deaths of two people and the injury of two others. A Lebanese journalist also died from her wounds after Israeli forces prevented an ambulance from reaching her following an earlier strike.
In a prior statement, the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health reported that Israeli warplanes had conducted two airstrikes on the town of Tayri in the Bint Jbeil district in southern Lebanon. The attacks resulted in the deaths of two people and the injury of journalist Zeinab Faraj, with ongoing efforts to rescue journalist Amal Khalil from under the rubble.
The ministry further detailed that Israeli forces pursued Khalil and her colleague Zeinab Faraj after they sought shelter from the first strike in a nearby house. The forces targeted the home they had fled to. When the Lebanese Red Cross attempted to evacuate the wounded, Israeli forces obstructed the humanitarian mission by throwing a stun grenade and firing at the ambulance, preventing them from retrieving Khalil. Meanwhile, Faraj and the bodies of the two victims were transported to the hospital.
