Dangerous statement by the Israeli military which claims, without evidence, that ambulances are being used to carry fighters & weapons. This comes after more than 100 aid workers have been killed in Lebanon & more than 128 ambulances & civil defense cars were damaged in strikes.

“There was no warning to the hospital before they struck. The warning didn’t come over the telephone, it came via bombing", the director of Marjayoun's public hospital said. Hospitals in south Lebanon close due to Israeli bombing, lack of supplies. theguardian.com/world/2024/oct…

Nada Homsi & I spoke with Western diplomatic and Lebanese political sources, who revealed how Israel sabotaged a Lebanon truce deal at the last moment to kill Hezbollah's leader. “Everyone wanted a truce, except Israel” thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2024…

10 firefighters were just killed by an Israeli airstrike on the municipality building in Bint Jbeil, south Lebanon, the Ministry of Health says. More than 100 civil defence workers have been killed by Israeli airstrikes over the past year, most of them over the last 2 weeks.

"But Israel’s ground invasion has offered the movement a lifeline. In fighting Israeli troops, it can reclaim the mantle of resistance... The beginning of this was a disaster for Hizbullah. Its escalation may offer a reprieve." economist.com/middle-east-an…

🧵One year ago, Hezbollah made the fateful decision to open a second front against Israel "to support" Gaza. Israel has since killed its leadership Destroyed much of south Leb/Beirut Killed 2,000+ Wounded 10,000 Displaced 1m + And it seems this is just the end of the beginning.

4 members of Lebanon's civil defence killed in an Israeli airstrike on the town of Derdghaya, after it reportedly struck a church that the civil defence were staying in. Israel has killed an unfathomable number of firefighters and paramedics in Lebanon over the last two weeks.

Israeli military issues its nightly evacuation orders to residents of Dahiyeh, the southern suburbs of Beirut, a little over an hour after it carried out two airstrikes in central Beirut, without warning.

Wafiq Safa’s targeting is more about Hezbollah’s internal position than it is the war in the south. If the first few weeks saw Israel focusing on cripling Hezbollah’s military command & control, now it is shifting to the key pillars of the internal control in Lebanon.

Fadi needs to be urgently evacuated for treatment. He is awake but in excruciating pain, and the hospitals are barely functioning. His case is extremely critical. Please help us share his story to facilitate his evacuation.

Israel claims that Hezbollah uses ambulances to transport weapons & that it will take "necessary steps" to stop transport of weapons no matter who is carrying them. It didn't provide evidence for the claim. Israel killed over 115 emergency responders in Leb over the past year.
