Israel Kills at Least Eight People in Southern Lebanon

HeadlineJun 03, 2026

Israel killed at least eight people in southern Lebanon on Tuesday, including two children and their father. The strikes hit multiple villages. In Tyre, Israeli bombs hit buildings next to Jabal Amel Hospital, killing four and wounding 127, including hospital staff. This is a Lebanese mother whose newborn son was in an incubator at the hospital.

Marwa: “My son is here in an incubator. He was born 13 days ago, and he’s been here in the incubator for nine days. I came here, breastfed him, and went to Burj el-Shamali. My husband and I heard about the strike and rushed here. The whole hospital was damaged. I ran straight here to see my son, and, thank God, I found him OK.”
