Israeli strike kills 12 medical staff at Lebanon health facility.

An Israeli rocket strike on a primary healthcare facility in southern Lebanon has killed twelve medical professionals, including doctors and nurses. The attack in Burj Qalaouiyah brings the total number of healthcare workers killed over the past twelve days to thirty-one. The Lebanese health ministry condemned the strike as a violation of international law. Meanwhile, the Israeli military alleged that Hezbollah uses medical facilities for military operations, a claim Lebanese officials strongly denied as justification for further attacks.
