The State of Israel unleashed a wave of attacks across southern Lebanon on Tuesday, November 18, which resulted in 13 people murdered. The attacks focused on the Ein El Hilweh refugee camp in the city of Sidon.
This attack came hours after a separate drone strike in the town of Blida, also in southern Lebanon, murdered one person. Another Israeli drone launched two missiles at a car in Bint Jbeil, murdering one person.
Tuesday saw a pattern of targeted strikes using Israeli drones against vehicles in southern Lebanese towns. The State of Israel acknowledged the attacks, but as usual claimed that these attacks were against the operations of the Palestinian resistance, more specifically against “operatives working in a Hamas training compound”.
Today Israel targeted a car followed by a school bus. A person was murdered by two missiles fired by an Israeli drone.
Lebanon’s Health Ministry has reported more than 270 people murdered and about 850 wounded by Israeli military actions since the ceasefire. According to several reports, shepherds and peasants have been murdered while tending to their animals and land, while efforts at reconstruction have also come under Israeli attack.
