Israel strikes building in densely populated Sidon
An Israeli strike on an office building in the southern city of Sidon killed five people and wounded seven, the Lebanese health ministry said Friday, as Israel presses attacks on Lebanon's south, east, and in Beirut's southern suburbs.
The strike targeted the tenth floor of an office building near two shelters for displaced people and a Lebanese Red Cross center, an AFP photographer said.
Rescuers removed at least one body and were gathering human remains, the photographer said.
The targeted Maqassed building houses offices and medical clinics in a densely populated area of Sidon.
