A Lebanese medical organization said 16 children aged between four and 14 were wounded in an Israeli air strike on the south Lebanon town of Siddikine all of whom taken to different hospitals across the region.
Lebanese media sources said seven other people were also injured in an Israeli strike on the town, inland from the coastal city of Tyre.
Lebanon’s state media reported that the strike on the town, located inland from the coastal city of Tyre, was among several conducted by "Israel" on Saturday, resulting in seven people being wounded.
On a related note, the Lebanese Resistance reported on Saturday that it successfully downed an Israeli Hermes 900 drones.
The Israeli military claimed that its fighter jets targeted "significant Hezbollah assets" in various areas of southern Lebanon, yet all of those who were affected by the strike were children.
The drone was shot down using a surface-to-air missile and it was later declared to have been a hostile Hermes 900 high-payload drone.
The drone was said to have been shot down over the southern Lebanese town of Deir Kifa.
The Lebanese resistance has been engaged in near-daily fire exchanges with "Israel" since the start of the Gaza genocide.
Over the nearly eight months of violence, an estimated 450 people have been killed in Lebanon.
The Israeli forces on the other hand has reported the death of at least 14 soldiers and 11 civilians while Hezbollah says the number is under-reported by the regime.
