The Lebanese health ministry said Israeli strikes on three locations in south Lebanon Thursday killed six rescuers affiliated with Hezbollah or its ally Amal.

The strikes killed five paramedics with the Hezbollah-affiliated Islamic Health Committee and one with the Amal-linked Risala Scouts, the health ministry said.

The deaths raised to 178 the number of rescuers and paramedics killed since Hezbollah and Israel started trading cross-border fire in October last year.
