Lebanese soldier killed, 4 paramedics wounded, in Israeli strike on south
The Lebanese army said an Israeli strike killed one of its soldiers during a rescue operation with the Red Cross in southern Lebanon on Thursday.
"A soldier was killed and another was wounded as a result of an aggression by the Israeli enemy during an evacuation and rescue operation with the Lebanese Red Cross in Taybeh village," the army said.
The Lebanese Red Cross said four of its volunteers were wounded. It said the convoy near the village of Taybeh, which was accompanied by Lebanese troops, was targeted despite coordinating its movements with U.N. peacekeepers.
