The two ambulance workers were killed during a rescue mission in the southern cities of Burj Rahal and Kafr Tibnit on Saturday, said the statement from Lebanon’s Ministry of Health.
The authorities condemn the Israeli attacks on health workers as cruel.
– This illustrates an enormous scale of violence that does not take humanitarian values ​​into account, says a statement.
Israel has not commented on the incident.
Destroyed buildings
At the same time, several attacks are reported against Lebanon’s capital Beirut and the suburb of Dahieh, which is considered a stronghold for the Hezbollah militia.
According to the Lebanese state news agency NNA, several buildings have been destroyed in the district, but no casualties have yet been reported. Israel issued an evacuation order for the area ahead of the bombing, which the IDF claims was aimed at Hezbollah infrastructure.
Clashes are also taking place between Hezbollah fighters and Israeli forces near the town of Dhayra on the border area between Israel and Lebanon, according to NNA.
Attack on ancient city
In addition, an attack is reported against Tyre, a historic ancient city that was founded several thousand years ago. The city is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
– The attack against Tyr was aimed at the “ruin district”, which resulted in the destruction of two buildings and damage to other nearby buildings, writes NNA, referring to a neighborhood near Tyr’s ancient hippodrome, a historic horse racing track.
Israel also claims to have shot down drones targeting Israel from Lebanese territory.
