 Hezbollah-linked Lebanon medics say Israeli strike wounds 16 children
Hezbollah-linked Lebanon medics say Israeli strike wounds 16 children

 Beirut (AFP) June 1, 2024

A Hezbollah-affiliated medical organisation said 16 children were wounded Saturday in an Israeli air strike on the south Lebanon town of Siddikine.

Aged between four and 14, the wounded children were taken for treatment in hospitals around the region, a source in the Islamic Health Committee told AFP.

Lebanon's state-run national News Agency said the strike on the town inland from the coastal city of Tyre was one of several conducted by Israel on Saturday. It reported seven people wounded.

The Israeli military said its fighter jets had struck "significant Hezbollah assets" in several areas of the south in response to rocket fire from the area launches aimed at northern Israel.

Hamas ally Hezbollah has traded near-daily cross-border fire with Israel since the Palestinian group's October 7 attack on southern Israel triggered war in the Gaza Strip.

The nearly eight months of violence have left almost 450 people dead in Lebanon, mostly fighters but including at least 80 civilians, according to an AFP tally.

On the Israeli side, at least 14 soldiers and 11 civilians have been killed, according to the army.
