 Attacks in southern Lebanon/WHO: Nine paramedics lose their lives

The World Health Organization said nine paramedics were killed and seven others were wounded in five separate attacks in southern Lebanon today.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the attacks hit emergency teams in several villages while they were on duty.

The latest incidents bring the number of health workers killed in March to at least 51, with more than 120 reported injured since the escalation intensified earlier this month, according to Lebanon's Ministry of Public Health.

The WHO says the attacks are severely hampering access to healthcare across southern Lebanon. Four hospitals and more than 50 primary health care centers have been forced to close, and several others are operating at reduced capacity after suffering damage. /CNA
