STORYLINE:
An Israeli airstrike on a paramedics center linked to a Lebanese Sunni Muslim group killed seven people early Wednesday and triggered a rocket attack from Lebanon that killed one person in northern Israel.
The airstrike on the village of Hebbariye came after a day of airstrikes and rocket attacks between Israel’s military and Lebanon’s Hezbollah group along the Lebanon-Israel border raising concerns of further escalation along the frontier that has been active for the past five months.
The airstrike that occurred after midnight Tuesday hit an office of the Islamic Emergency and Relief Corps, according to the Lebanese Ambulance Association.
The strike was one of the deadliest single attacks since violence erupted along the Lebanon-Israel border more than five months ago.
Rescue services in Israel said that one person was killed and two others lightly injured in the Hezbollah rocket attack.
The man, aged 25, was killed when the rocket sparked a fire in an industrial park in Kiryat Shmona.
Around 30 rockets were launched from Lebanon toward northern Israel on Wednesday morning, according to the Israeli military.
One man who was lightly injured in the strike found paramedics who arrived on the scene and directed them towards his coworker, who was unconscious.
Paramedics confirmed his death at the scene, according to Israel Rescue Services.
Lebanon’s Hezbollah militant group began launching rockets towards Israel one day after Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel on Oct. 7.
There has been near-daily violence, mostly confined to the area along the Lebanon-Israel border, and international mediators are scrambling to prevent an all-out war between Hezbollah and Israel.
The fighting has killed nine civilians and 11 soldiers in Israel.
Nearly 240 Hezbollah fighters and about 40 civilians have died in Lebanon.
