The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) documented 552 Israeli
violations in South Lebanon
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/iran-condemns-iof-aggression-on-south-lebanon--says-us-is-co>
over three days, from Friday, August 7, through Sunday, August 9, including
455 artillery shells and 97 violations of Lebanese airspace, most involving
drones.

UN Deputy Spokesperson Farhan Haq said, "229 shells fired by the Israeli
army on Saturday represent the highest number recorded by UNIFIL since June
21," as the UN force also reported an Israeli airstrike in al-Mansouri.

UNIFIL further reported that Israeli tanks fired shells that landed around
200 meters from a UNIFIL position in Mays al-Jabal, highlighting the
continued Israeli military activity in southern Lebanon.

Weapons, unexploded ordnance, and explosive devices across UNIFIL's area of
operations. Among the items found was a 107mm rocket launcher and several
rockets located alongside a road in Froun. In Sarbin, UNIFIL discovered
explosive devices that were destroyed in place.
Israeli ‘double-tap’ strike targets rescuers in Nabatieh

The latest violations add to a flood of Israeli breaches of the ceasefire
agreement
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/lebanon---israel--unlikely-to-resume-talks-before-end-of-sum>
in Lebanon, which has faced repeated violations since it took effect.
Rather than bringing an end to Israeli attacks and the occupation of
southern Lebanon, the agreement has been followed by continued shelling,
airstrikes, and incursions, raising renewed concerns over the
implementation of the ceasefire and the protection of Lebanese sovereignty.

Earlier today, in a glaring violation of the ceasefire and international
law, an Israeli drone strike targeted an ambulance team in southern Lebanon.

An Israeli drone strike on the city of Nabatieh

wounded two civilians, the Emergency Operations Center of Lebanon’s
Ministry of Public Health announced, before a second attack targeted an
ambulance team from the Islamic Health Authority, Islamic Message Scouts
Association, and other medical personnel that had arrived at the scene to
evacuate the wounded. The strike damaged an ambulance.

Moments ago, an Israeli drone strike targeted a vehicle on the outskirts of
Nabatieh, in southern Lebanon. When ambulance services from Al-Risala
Foundation attempted to tend to the victims they were targeted with a
double-tap strike.

The Ministry renewed its condemnation of the continued Israeli targeting of
ambulance crews, describing it as an unacceptable violation of
international humanitarian law and all international norms.

Lebanese health authorities have reported multiple “double-tap” and
“triple-tap” Israeli airstrikes targeting emergency medical and civil
defense crews in southern Lebanon. The secondary and tertiary strikes
reportedly hit rescuers as they arrived at the scene to evacuate and treat
people wounded in earlier attacks.
