Israeli strikes kill eight in southern Lebanon's Tyre city

According to Al Jazeera, the Israeli regime killed at least eight people in strikes on the city of Tyre in southern Lebanon on Tuesday. The airstrike hit a popular housing area of the coastal city, the civil defence agency told Al Jazeera. The displacement order included the city's Christian quarter, which had previously been excluded. The Israeli army alleges that Hezbollah fighters were operating there.

In recent days, the city has been repeatedly attacked. On Monday, five people were killed and eight wounded in a strike near a Red Cross centre in Tyre, according to Lebanon's National News Agency. Among those injured were four paramedics, the report said, adding that the bombardment also damaged a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The wave of deadly strikes came after Iran conducted punitive strikes on the Israeli regime in occupied territories. Iran has warned the Zionist regime that any continuation of aggression on Lebanon will result in a more crushing response from Iranian armed forces than Monday's strikes. Iranian officials have repeatedly insisted that the ceasefire between Iran and the United States that took effect on April 8 was conditional on a truce on all fronts, including Lebanon.

However, with a US greenlight and the silence of international organizations, Israel has continued its malicious actions against the Lebanese people on a daily basis, committing war crimes by using banned weapons, including phosphorus bombs, Iranian officials say. In response, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) on Sunday night launched a series of missile strikes against targets in occupied territories, including Israel's Ramat David Air Base.

According to Mehr News, the report by Al Jazeera and Lebanon's National News Agency provided these details.
