Lebanon complains to UN over Israeli strike that wounded schoolchildren

Lebanon has submitted a complaint to the U.N. Security Council over an Israeli drone strike this month on a car that also damaged a nearby minibus wounding several schoolchildren, the Foreign Ministry said.

A source close to Hezbollah said one of the group's fighters was killed in that strike.

The attack was "a violation of international humanitarian law," the Foreign Ministry said, urging the Security Council to "condemn Israel's direct, deliberate and repeated targeting of civilians."
