Israeli Strikes Kill 394 in Lebanon in One Week, Including 83 Children
As Israeli attacks continue to escalate, the death toll of their current war on Lebanon has been soaring, with the Lebanese Health Ministry reporting today that 394 people have been killed since Monday, including at least 83 children.
Among the latest strikes was an incident in central Beirut overnight Sunday, in which Israeli warplanes attacked a hotel housing a large number of displaced civilians fleeing the war. That and other overnight strikes left at least 15 people dead and 15 wounded.
The hotel was in the normally touristy part of Beirut around Raouche, and because of the extra space it was a place a lot of people were fleeing to. The strike killed at least four people and wounded 10 others. It’s the second attack on a Beirut hotel this week, with the previous attack targeting the Comfort Hotel in the Christian majority suburbs of the city, killing 11.
