BEIRUT: President Joseph Aoun on Saturday condemned Israeli strikes on civilian sites in southern Lebanon, which reportedly killed at least one person.
“The seriousness of the latest attack stems from the fact that it comes after the ceasefire agreement in Gaza,” he added, questioning whether Israel now sought to expand its attacks on Lebanon.
The Health Ministry said the raids killed a Syrian national and injured seven people, including two Syrian women, on the outskirts of Msaileh Al-Najjarieh, Saida.
The victim, who lived in Ain Qenia in the Hasbaya district, was identified as Hazem Kabul, a truck driver delivering vegetables from the south to other regions.
The attack also injured his sister, who was traveling with him in the truck.
