Difficult Night in the South: 8 Killed in Attack on Café in Naqoura and House in Tyre Hrefa

The Israeli army carried out an airstrike targeting a café in the town of Naqoura, resulting in the death of 3 people and sending several injured individuals to hospitals in Tyre for treatment. A large number of locals gathered to donate blood outside the hospitals. The deceased were civil defense paramedics affiliated with the Islamic Scout Association, who were gathered near the targeted rest area to head to the town of Tyre Hrefa, where the first airstrike occurred, which killed 5 people, and the search is ongoing for missing individuals under the rubble.

The General Directorate of Civil Defense mourned the paramedic "Kamel Faisal Shehada" from the southern town of Dirantar, "Waheed Al-Amili" and "Hassan Hussein Hassan" known as "Al-Du'faqar" from the southern town of Mazraat Mishref. The Amal Movement mourned the member Ali Ahmad Mahdi, born in Naqoura on 8/3/1975, who was killed in the Israeli attack on the town of Naqoura. Meanwhile, the Islamic Scout Association mourned the civil defense paramedic Hussein Ahmad Juhair, born in Naqoura on 31/10/1978, who was also killed in the Israeli attack on the town of Naqoura.

Hezbollah also issued a statement mourning the member Ali Mohsen Aqil "Abis," born in 1994 from the town of Jabin in southern Lebanon, and Ali Abbas Yazbek "Muhammad Al-Jawad," born in 2001 from the town of Naqoura in southern Lebanon.

Israeli warplanes had bombed the area twice, targeting a house in the town of Tyre Hrefa, dropping two missiles, one of which did not detonate, while the second missile completely destroyed the house, prompting ambulances to head towards the targeted residence.

Israeli artillery also shelled the western outskirts of the town of Mays al-Jabal towards Wadi Al-Salouqi and the outskirts of Blida towards the town of Aitron. In response, Hezbollah announced in a statement that "its elements confronted an Israeli drone in the skies of Rabat Thalathin-Al-Adissa, forcing it to retreat behind the border."
