Escalating tensions in the region were marked by a series of Israeli drone strikes and air raids in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza on Thursday. The attacks resulted in casualties among civilians and military personnel.
In Lebanon, several individuals were killed and injured in drone strikes targeting different locations, including the Beirut-Bekaa highway and the town of Tyre. Additional strikes caused extensive damage in various towns.
Meanwhile, in Syria, one soldier was killed and seven others were wounded in airstrikes that hit military positions in Damascus and Homs. The attacks, reportedly launched from the occupied Golan Heights and northern Lebanon, caused significant material damage in the capital.
In Gaza, a child and her mother lost their lives in an Israeli bombing, with civil defense personnel also sustaining injuries during rescue operations. The detainment of civil defense members in the area has further hindered humanitarian assistance efforts.
Tragically, three Lebanese soldiers, including an officer, were killed in an Israeli airstrike while providing medical aid in southern Lebanon. The Lebanese Army confirmed the deaths, underscoring the devastating impact of the escalating violence.
These events highlight the urgent need for de-escalation and peace in the region. Stay updated with global news on Jordan News.
