An Israeli airstrike on Thursday killed three people and wounded several others, including Lebanese soldiers and UN peacekeepers, near a checkpoint in Sidon, southern Lebanon. The attack targeted a vehicle passing through the Awali checkpoint, resulting in the deaths of three passengers. Three Lebanese soldiers and several members of the Malaysian contingent of UNIFIL were also injured. The strike is part of intensified Israeli raids in the region amid ongoing hostilities with Hezbollah. UN peacekeepers, who were near the strike, sustained minor injuries, and the attack raised concerns over the safety of civilians and peacekeepers.
