On April 29th, Israeli strikes had a building in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, killing five people, including three emergency rescuers from the civil defense team. Lebanese officials say the first blast wounded folks in Magdaouzoun, then a second strike trapped and killed the responders who rushed in, plus two others. Two army soldiers got hurt too. This double-tap tactic, first attack than hitting the helpers, has drawn fire before, with rights groups calling deliberate hits on medic's potential war. Crimes Israel's military says it targeted Hezbollah sites and took out three fighters that day, but hasn't commented on the rescuers yet. Lebanon's prime minister, Nawaf Salam, slammed it as a war crime and ceasefire violation. The fragile U.S. broker truce has cut some fighting, but not stopped it, as both sides point fingers. Israel at Hezbollah breaches, Hezbollah at Israeli, moves. The conflict kicked off March 2nd, when Hezbollah fired rockets into Israel, sparking

air raids and a ground push. Over 2,500 dead in Lebanon since, including 103 health workers, plus hundreds of women and kids. Israel reports two civilians and 17 military killed from Hezbollah attacks. Strikes and drone hits keep trading off in the south, with the recent Israeli soldier deaths from Hezbollah drones. Once simmered despite the deal's self-defense clause, leaving emergency crews in the crossfire as the back and forth drags on. That wraps global news today, brought to you with AI.
