Two killed in Israeli strike on Lebanon

Two people were killed in an Israeli air strike that hit a residential building in the Arab Salim settlement in the Nabatieh region of southern Lebanon, a medical source told RIA Novosti on Sunday.

“An Israeli fighter jet fired two missiles at a three-storey building in Arab Salim. As a result, the building was completely destroyed and two people were killed, a woman and a man,” the source said.

The medical source added that debris clearance and rescue operations were still under way, meaning the death toll could rise.

In addition, an eyewitness told RIA Novosti that Israeli aircraft attacked and destroyed Ghandour Hospital in the town of Nabatiyeh El Faouqa and fired on a restaurant in the city of Nabatieh.
