Israeli Airstrikes Heavily Damage Hospital in Southern Lebanon
(MENAFN) Fresh Israeli airstrikes carried out early Saturday caused major destruction in the southern Lebanese city of Tyre, according to reports.
The attacks severely affected Hiram Hospital, with damage reported in operating theaters, patient wards, nurses’ housing, medical clinics, power systems, and windows throughout the facility.
Reports also said that another structure in the city was completely demolished during the strikes.
In addition, nearby homes and key infrastructure suffered significant destruction, including water lines, electricity networks, and local roads in surrounding neighborhoods after Israeli warplanes targeted the area.
Emergency crews, ambulances, and civil defense personnel quickly arrived to inspect the affected sites and evaluate the extent of the damage.
Israeli forces also conducted another airstrike targeting the town of Yohmor al-Shaqif.
According to Lebanese officials cited in reports, the recent Israeli military campaign in Lebanon, which began on March 2 following Hezbollah’s response linked to the Iran war, has resulted in more than 3,000 deaths and displaced around 1.6 million people.
The attacks have continued despite a ceasefire brokered through US mediation that is scheduled to remain in place until early July.
