Lebanon's health ministry said on Monday an Israeli strike in south Lebanon overnight killed 10 firefighters.


"An Israeli strike overnight targeted a local firefighting center in Baraasheet where 10 civil defense members were present," municipal official Reda Ashour said.


The health ministry reported the "killing of 10 firefighters" who were "in the building ready to go out on rescue missions", adding efforts to remove the rubble were ongoing.


The latest report brings to 115 the number of rescuers killed in a year since the start of cross-border fire between Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, according to an AFP tally of official figures.
