Lebanon's civil defense says Israeli strike kills rescuer in south

An Israeli strike on South Lebanon killed a member of Lebanon's civil defense, the rescue organisation said Friday, a day after another strike killed a rescuer from the Hezbollah-affiliated Islamic Health Committee.

In a statement, the civil defence said their rescuer was killed "as a result of an Israeli strike that targeted him" on the road between two southern towns, despite the truce in effect.

World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Wednesday it had "verified 152 attacks on healthcare that resulted in 103 deaths and 241 injuries" in Lebanon since the war began on March 2.
