Paramedics in Lebanon speak to BBC after Israeli strikes | BBC News

From BBC News.

In Lebanon, one in five people have been forced to leave their homes since fighting renewed in March.

The BBC’s Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega joined paramedics on duty in Nabatieh – a city that was once vibrant, but is now abandoned.

Israel say some ambulances and health facilities in Lebanon are being used by Hezbollah – but paramedics say there is no evidence of this claim.

Elsewhere, the Israel Defense Forces said troops had killed more than 20 Hezbollah fighters operating from a hospital compound in Bint Jbeil on Sunday, the site of fierce fighting during the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.

Lebanon’s health ministry denied the claim, accusing Israel of targeting civilians and medical facilities.
