Six killed in Israeli strikes across Lebanon, Health Ministry says

Al Mayadeen15-07-2025
The Lebanese Ministry of Health confirmed Tuesday evening that six people were martyred and over a dozen others wounded in a series of Israeli airstrikes and drone attacks across southern and northern Lebanon.
According to the ministry's statement, one person was martyred in an Israeli drone strike on a vehicle in the southern town of Babliyeh, located in the Saida district. Local sources had earlier reported that an Israeli drone had struck a civilian car in the area.
Meanwhile, three individuals were martyred and 13 others wounded in a separate Israeli drone attack that targeted a vehicle in the town of al-Ayrouniyeh, near Tripoli in northern Lebanon. The strike marks a significant geographic expansion of Israeli aggression, moving beyond its usual targets in the south.
Additionally, two more people were martyred in Israeli air raids on Monday that struck the southern towns of Deir Kifa and Beit Lif.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern Lebanon reported that Israeli occupation forces stationed in the occupied village of al-Ghajar opened fire with machine guns toward the outskirts of al-Wazzani, a Lebanese town near the border. No injuries were reported.
On Sunday, the Israeli occupation launched multiple strikes on the town of Burj Rahhal in the Tyre district, wounding nine civilians.
Additionally, a young girl sustained critical injuries and was transferred to intensive care following an Israeli airstrike on the town of al-Zrariyeh in the Saida district, the Health Ministry reported.
Israeli occupation warplanes also launched a raid on the outskirts of Bouslaiya and bombed areas between the towns of Ain Qana, Sarba, and Houmin al-Fawqa. Four consecutive airstrikes also hit the outskirts of Irzay in the Saida district.
In a related escalation, Israeli warplanes intensified their aggression with a strike on the outskirts of Bouday, west of the Baalbek district, followed by two additional airstrikes on the outskirts of nearby Flaoui.

Statement from MP George Bouchikian's media office criticizes parliamentary session for denying defense opportunity

The media office of former minister and MP George Bouchikian issued a statement expressing strong criticism of the recent parliamentary session concerning the request to lift his immunity. The statement highlighted that Bouchikian's defense lawyer was officially notified on July 21, 2025, to appear before the Parliament's general assembly to present a legal defense by constitutional rights and international laws. The lawyer arrived fully prepared to challenge the request and address its legal and constitutional shortcomings. However, the statement condemned the Parliament for proceeding directly to a vote after reading the request, without allowing the defense lawyer to present his plea. This move was described as a serious breach of justice and a violation of the right to defense, casting doubt on the legitimacy of the session. The statement also pointed out that, in the same session, lawyers representing the former telecommunications ministers involved in a separate case were allowed to plead before the assembly, highlighting what it called a clear double standard and inequality before the law. The media office emphasized that this was not merely a procedural error. Still, a dangerous precedent, and promised to address the issue in detail later to uphold justice, dignity, and respect for the constitution and the law.

MP Elias Bou Saab says lifting of immunity is a positive step, denies politicization of telecom case

MP Elias Bou Saab said that 'what happened in today's session is promising,' and that 'no one is considered accused by the Parliament.' He added, 'There is certainly no politicization in the telecom file, and it didn't emerge under the current term, but rather two and a half years ago. It was referred to the General Assembly, but we were unable to hold a session at the time.' He continued, 'The General Assembly unanimously decided to lift immunity and affirmed that the work done by the committee was correct.'
