Israeli Army Sets Fire to Government Hospital in Southern Lebanon

On Friday, September 18, 2026, the Israeli army set fire to a government hospital in Mays al-Jabal, a town in southern Lebanon. The incident was reported by Lebanon's National News Agency and condemned by the Health Ministry as a 'brutal crime.' The hospital had reportedly been used by Israeli forces as a military position. No casualties or damage estimates have been released. This attack occurs despite a US-brokered framework agreement between Lebanon and Israel, which calls for a gradual Israeli withdrawal. Israeli forces have continued military operations in the area, and the conflict has caused thousands of casualties since 2023.
