Israeli occupation forces committed a new massacre in the town of Jabshit, southern Lebanon, where their warplanes targeted a populated residential building at night, completely destroying it over the heads of its inhabitants. The raid resulted in the martyrdom of five members of one family: Muhammad Jawad Bahja and his wife Latifa, in addition to Amani Jaber and her two children, Maryam and Ali Al-Reda Hilal Bahja.
Rescue and rubble removal operations continued in Jabshit for several consecutive hours, with ambulance teams working to retrieve bodies from under the debris amidst difficult field conditions. This raid comes in the context of a wide Israeli escalation directly targeting residential areas and civilians deep within southern Lebanese villages.
On the ground, Israeli attacks did not stop at Jabshit; dawn raids also hit the town of Hanin, where occupation forces carried out extensive demolition operations of residential homes. Loud explosions were also heard in the city of Tyre, resulting from artillery and aerial bombardment targeting the border town of Naqoura, causing severe material damage to properties.
In the Marjayoun district, field sources reported that the Al-Jalahiya area in the town of Khiam was subjected to a series of violent night raids, coinciding with intensive sweeping operations with heavy machine guns. These Israeli operations aim to create a buffer zone by destroying infrastructure and homes in villages adjacent to the border.
On the other hand, the Israeli occupation army admitted that one of its soldiers was injured by the explosion of an explosive drone launched from Lebanon. Hebrew sources confirmed a wide internal debate due to the failure of defense systems to deal with the threat of drones launched by Hezbollah, which have now begun to accurately target troop gatherings.
For its part, Hezbollah announced in an official statement that it carried out an aerial attack with a swarm of kamikaze drones targeting the newly established Nimr Al-Jamal site belonging to the occupation army. The statement confirmed that the attack achieved confirmed hits among enemy soldiers, noting that this operation comes in response to the continuous aggressions against villages and civilians in the south.
In the context of official reactions, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned the occupation's targeting of civil defense elements in the town of Majdal Zoun, which led to the martyrdom of three paramedics while performing their humanitarian duty. Aoun stressed that this targeting represents a blatant violation of international laws that impose special protection for workers in relief and medical fields.
In turn, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam described the targeting of rescue teams as a described war crime added to the record of Israeli violations against the Lebanese people. Salam affirmed that the government is following up on these aggressions with international bodies to document the crimes affecting civilians and paramedics who are trying to save victims of air raids.
Targeting civil defense elements while performing their duty is a described war crime that falls within a series of repeated aggressions affecting civilians and rescue teams.
