World Health Organization representative in Lebanon Abdel Nasser Abu Bakr had stated that the agency had documented 190 incidents affecting healthcare services across the country over the past three months.
Hezbollah, meanwhile, accused Israel of using “false claims” regarding Tebnine Governmental Hospital to justify attacks on Lebanon’s healthcare sector. In a statement, the group cited a recent strike near Jabal Amel Hospital that reportedly forced the facility out of service and endangered patients and medical staff.
Elsewhere, local media reported strikes across Nabatieh, Tyre, and Saida districts, including Maaroub, Deir Kifa, Choukine, Froun, Arnoun, Ghandouriyeh, Majdal Zoun, Srifa, Zibqin, Addoussieh, and surrounding areas. Lebanese authorities have documented more than 8,500 Israeli raids since March 2, which, according to the Health Ministry, have killed 3,516 people and wounded 10,674 others, including women and children.
