Five Lebanese killed in Zionist airstrike in southern Lebanon

BIREUT,  March 10 (YPA) – At least five Lebanese citizens were killed and more than nine others, including members of one family, were injured in a Zionist airstrike last night which targeted a house in southern Lebanon, the country’s National News Agency reported.

It said a Zionist airstrike targeted a house in the Ain neighborhood in the center of Khirbet Selm town, resulting in the murder of a family of four—who had previously fled from the town of Blida—and the injury of more than nine others.

The agency pointed out that Israeli warplanes fired two missiles at the house, resulting in the murder of a father from the Marji family, his pregnant wife from the Fakih family, their two sons, and another person.

The Israeli attack also injured nine people from surrounding houses, all of whom were transferred to the Tebnine Government Hospital.

The airstrike caused severe damage to dozens of surrounding houses, according to the agency.
