The U.N. human rights office said on Friday that over 100 medics and emergency workers had been killed in Lebanon since a conflict between Israel and Hezbollah began a year ago.
“In all, over 100 medical and emergency workers have been killed across Lebanon since October last year,” spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani told a U.N. briefing, citing figures she said were compiled by the United Nations humanitarian office.
We’ve had several reports also of air strikes targeting other medical centres and of paramedics as well as firefighters being killed,” she said.
World Health Organization spokesperson Christian Lindmeier said that since Sept. 17, there had been 18 attacks on health facilities in Lebanon, killing 72 health workers.
