The Lebanese Red Cross said in a statement that on Saturday evening, while carrying out a humanitarian mission on a road near the town of Beit Yahoun in the Bint Jbeil district, one of its teams was directly targeted by an Israeli drone. The attack resulted in the martyrdom of paramedic Hassan Badawi and the injury of another paramedic, who was transferred to Tebnine Governmental Hospital.
The statement noted that prior coordination had been conducted with UNIFIL to ensure protection and a safe route for the mission.
