'Israeli' strikes on southern Lebanon kill one, wound 4 rescuers

• At least one person was killed in Arabsalim.
• Four rescuers from the Islamic Health Committee were wounded in a strike on Srifa.

'Israeli' airstrikes targeted several locations across southern Lebanon on Sunday, killing at least one person and wounding multiple emergency responders.

The attacks come despite a fragile ceasefire agreement, with the Lebanese Health Ministry reporting that medical personnel were caught in the crossfire.

According to the ministry, a strike on the town of Arabsalim killed at least one person and wounded three others, including a child.

In a separate incident, a strike near a medical center in Srifa wounded five people. Four of the injured were rescuers from the Hezbollah-affiliated Islamic Health Committee.

Condemnation

The Lebanese Health Ministry issued a stern rebuke following the strikes, accusing 'Israel' of systematically ignoring international humanitarian law.

"The Ministry reiterates its condemnation of these repeated attacks," the statement read. The ministry cited Article 19 of the Geneva Convention, which mandates that medical facilities and personnel be protected from danger in conflict zones. "What is happening is exactly the opposite," the ministry added.

Strikes beyond evacuation zones

While the 'Israeli' military had issued specific evacuation warnings for 11 villages earlier in the day, Lebanon's state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported that the bombardment extended far beyond those designated areas.
