  • It brings to 164 the number of rescuers and paramedics killed in Lebanon

BEIRUT: Lebanon’s health ministry said a Hezbollah-affiliated paramedic was killed Saturday in an Israeli strike on a medical center in south Lebanon, which left five others wounded, three of them Hezbollah-linked paramedics.
“The Israeli enemy’s raid on a medical center in Bazuriyeh resulted in” the death of a rescuer with the Hezbollah-affiliated Islamic Health Committee. It brings to 164 the number of rescuers and paramedics killed in Lebanon since Hezbollah and Israel began trading cross-border fire last year, the health ministry said.
