At least 15 medical workers, including ambulance crew members, have been killed and 45 others injured in intensified Israeli attacks across Lebanon this month, according to the country’s Lebanese Ministry of Information.

Officials said the casualties occurred during recent airstrikes as violence continued to escalate in several parts of the country. Since 2 March, at least 634 people have reportedly been killed in Israeli attacks in Lebanon, the ministry added.

Meanwhile, National News Agency reported fresh Israeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon.

One strike targeted the outskirts of the towns of Haris and Kafra in the Nabatieh governorate, while another hit an area near Naqoura in the Tyre district, according to the report.

The latest attacks come amid rising tensions along the border, raising fears of further escalation in the conflict.
