Thirteen healthcare workers were injured on Sunday in an Israeli airstrike targeting the vicinity of Hiram Hospital in Lebanon’s southern city of Tyre, the Lebanese Health Ministry said, Anadolu reports.

The bombardment also caused “severe damage after the hospital sustained damage in earlier Israeli attacks,” the ministry said in a statement.

It called on the international community to “put an end to the escalating Israeli attacks, which are expanding without regard for international humanitarian law, UN resolutions, and international norms.”

The attacks came as the Israeli army escalated its assaults across Lebanon amid daily violations of a fragile ceasefire agreement in place since mid-April.

Since March 2, the Israeli attacks have killed at least 3,371 people, injured 10,129 others, and displaced over 1.6 million others, according to the Lebanese officials.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that Israel is expanding its military offensive in Lebanon with “large forces on the ground,” despite a US-announced ceasefire that remains in effect until early July, Anadolu reports.

Netanyahu made the remarks at the start of a meeting of Israel’s Security Cabinet, according to a statement from his office.

“We are deepening our operations in Lebanon, and the Israeli army is operating with large ground forces and controlling strategic areas,” Netanyahu said, without specifying the locations.

He also claimed the army was “fortifying the security belt” to protect northern Israeli towns.

The Israeli army has continued to violate the ceasefire that took effect on April 17 and was later extended by the United States until early July.

According to Lebanese officials, the Israeli attacks have killed nearly 3,200 people, injured more than 9,600 and displaced over 1.6 million since early March.
