Lebanese parliament member Bilal Abdallah has said that the Israeli army’s targeting of Tebnine Hospital, the last remaining fully functioning hospital in southern Lebanon, is a “war crime”, AlJazeera reports.

Abdallah has said that attack on the hospital, that injured nine people, added to Israel’s “long record of killing medical and ambulance personnel, destroying health centres, and disrupting the operation of numerous hospitals in the South and the southern suburbs of Beirut”.

“It is a cowardly act, and the international community, its relevant organisations, and the relevant international courts must address it,” he said in a social media post on X.
