4 hospitals in Lebanon closed on Friday after Israeli airstrikes hit health facilities, killing paramedics and staff. At least 37 medical centers have shut down due to the strikes, leaving many without care. Lebanon’s Health Minister said 97 rescue workers have been killed since the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel started. In southern Lebanon, hospitals were directly hit, forcing evacuations and leaving emergency patients untreated. Israel claims Hezbollah is using medical vehicles for military purposes, prompting these attacks. The World Health Organization condemned the strikes, calling for the protection of healthcare workers.
