Over a dozen paramedics have been killed in Lebanon in the latest wave of Israeli attacks, according to the country's Health Ministry.

On Sunday, the ministry confirmed that 14 paramedics were killed during two days of relentless Israeli bombardment in the eastern and southern regions of Lebanon, as well as in Beirut, where Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was martyred.

In its statement, the Ministry strongly denounced the Israeli occupation for its continuous attacks on medical facilities, underscoring that "paramedics do not engage in hostilities" and deserve protection during times of war.

“The Israeli occupation forces have accumulated their attacks on paramedics and health centers in recent days. This series of attacks led to the martyrdom of fourteen paramedics in two days," it continued.

The statement emphasized that the Israeli occupation's repeated attacks on health centers and vehicles "flout international laws and norms, particularly the Geneva Convention," which underscores the need for the neutrality of health facilities and healthcare workers in war zones to enable them to fulfill their humanitarian responsibilities.

“Does Israel want the blood to flow without stopping? Where is the international community and its responsibility to put an end to this escalating genocide?” it added.

Meanwhile, the Civil Defense in East Lebanon announced that 6 paramedics were killed in Israeli raids on ambulance centers in the town of Sohmor in Western Bekaa.

A few hours later, it was reported that three paramedics from the Civil Defense of the Islamic Health Authority were killed when their center in the town of Arzoun was targeted by an airstrike.

This brings the total number of medical staff killed in the Israeli aggression to 23.

The Lebanese Government Emergency Committee reported that the Israeli occupation carried out 216 airstrikes across Lebanon in the past 24 hours.

For the first time, the aggression extended to the capital on Sunday at midnight. Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that an Israeli airstrike targeted a multi-story residential building in the Cola area of Beirut. 

Initial reports indicate that it was a drone strike and not an air raid from fighter jets.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) announced the martyrdom of three of its cadres, two leaders and a member, Mohammed Abdel Aal, Imad Awda, and Abdul Rahman Abdel Aal.

The three PFLP members ascended to martyrdom after the Israeli occupation targeted a residential apartment in Cola, located in the capital Beirut. 

Moreover, across Lebanon, our correspondent also mentioned that five airstrikes targeted the vicinity of Hermel in northeastern Lebanon.

In the south, Israeli aircraft struck the towns of al-Mansouri and al-Qlaileh in the Tyre district and al-Ghaziyeh in the East Saida area.
