BEIRUT: An Israeli drone targeted a motorcycle and a car on Sunday in the densely populated town of Bint Jbeil, south of the Litani River, Lebanon, killing five people, including three children and their father.
Their mother was critically injured, in addition to the motorcycle driver, according to the operations center at the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
The president of the country, who is in New York to participate in the UN General Assembly, condemned the killings.
Pro-Hezbollah news websites reported that the family targeted by the raid was “the family of Shadi Sobhi Marwa, who was martyred along with his children, Celine, Hadi and Aseel.” (Supplied)
“While we are in New York to discuss issues of peace and human rights, here is Israel persisting in its ongoing violations of international resolutions, most notably the Cessation of Hostilities Agreement, by committing a new massacre in Bint Jbeil, which claimed the lives of five martyrs, including three children,” he said.
