Seven Lebanese citizens were martyred Wednesday night in a barrage of Israeli strikes on the city of Nabatiyeh in southern Lebanon.
The National News Agency reported on Thursday that the Israeli occupation army carried out a massacre last night by targeting a residential apartment of Al-Berjawi family, in the city center of Nabatiyeh, with a guided missile, resulting in the martyrdom of seven people.
The agency added that ambulance and relief crews managed to pull a child alive from under the debris, after a search operation that lasted to more than four hours, noting that five bodies were recovered, while search operations for two other bodies were still going on. Seven wounded people were transferred to hospitals, it added.
“The Israeli airstrikes caused severe damage to the three-story building, including the targeted apartment. The building is now on the verge of collapse due to large cracks in it. The neighboring buildings, parked cars on the road, and electricity and communication networks were also damaged,” the agency added.
