A paramedic has been killed and 12 wounded in an Israeli raid on a health centre in al-Bazourieh, near Tyre, in the south of the country, Al Jazeera reports.

The Public Health Emergency Operations Centre — affiliated with the Ministry of Public Health — has said in a statement the Israeli raid on the health centre led to the killing of a paramedic and the injury of others, including three paramedics.

The ministry has said the total number of killed paramedics “since the beginning of the aggression has risen to 164 and the number of wounded to 275”.

The ministry has said it “reiterates its condemnation of the occupation forces’ insistence on targeting medical and health centres and crews and urges the international community to put an end to this long series of inhumane attacks”.
