Three members of the Lebanese Civil Defense were killed on Saturday in an Israeli airstrike that targeted their firetruck shortly after they had extinguished a fire caused by an earlier Israeli strike.

The General Directorate of the Civil Defense mourned the three martyrs; Kassem Bazzi, Mohammed Hachem, and Abbas Hammoud, adding that two civil servants were wounded in the aggression, one of whom critically.

It mentioned in its statement that its three "active members ... were martyred as a result of an Israeli airstrike that targeted [their] fire truck after [they] completed a firefighting mission at 18:15 in the town of Froun in the Nabatieh district."

The Lebanese Health Ministry stated that this attack underscores the "barbaric and aggressive intentions" of the "Israeli enemy," which "persists in carrying out violations prohibited by international law, leaving no space for humanitarian missions that are normally permitted even in the most brutal and devastating wars."

Earlier this week, Israeli occupation forces targeted a vehicle driven by an employee of a cleaning company contracted by UNIFIL on the Tyre-Naqoura road in southern Lebanon, killing the contractor Hussein Mahdi Mahdi and his cousin Ali Yousef Mahdi.

This escalation in Israeli crimes comes as the occupation grapples with achieving its war objectives in Gaza being confronted by Palestinian Resistance groups, and struggling to deter Hezbollah or counter its daily operations.
