Lebanese Army recovers soldier's body after Israeli strike near Qaraoun Lake

The Lebanese Army announced that on Wednesday, an army unit succeeded in recovering the body of a soldier who was killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting the vicinity of his military position near the Qaraoun Lake in western Bekaa.

The operation followed ongoing field efforts carried out amid heavy surveillance by Israeli drones. The army said it had been unable to reach the soldier's body the previous day because of continuing security threats and repeated Israeli strikes on the area.

According to the statement, the region was subjected to several Israeli airstrikes on May 26, which killed the soldier along with several paramedics who were attempting to carry out a humanitarian mission to evacuate him.
