Red Cross calls consecutive strikes in Lebanon 'gravely concerning'

2^min

The International Committee of the Red Cross said it was deeply concerned by attacks on medical workers in Lebanon after a deadly strike on ‌a Red Cross centre in the country on Monday and the death of a volunteer a day earlier.

Lebanon's state news agency reported that Monday's strike, which it said was carried out by Israel, killed one person and damaged Lebanese Red Cross vehicles.

The ICRC said the Lebanese Red Cross centre in the district ⁠of Tyre, a city on Lebanon's coast, was hit by the strike. It did not comment on who was responsible or give details of the victim.

Agnes Dhur, head of the ICRC delegation in Lebanon, said in a statement on Monday: "The loss of those who dedicate their lives to saving others is gravely concerning, given the ⁠impact on the civilians who depend on their help."

"Humanitarian and medical personnel must be protected. They must be allowed to reach and help the wounded, and return unharmed," she added.
