On 18 November 2025, an Israeli airstrike reportedly carried out by a drone hit a car in the parking lot of a mosque in the Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp near Sidon. At least 13 people were killed, with several others wounded.
\nEarlier this month in Kfarsir (Nabatieh), a guided missile strike killed four people, including civilians, and wounded three more. In Doueir (Nabatieh province), strikes on a vehicle and adjacent structures killed two individuals and injured seven.
\nOn 11 October 2025, a strike in Msayleh (southern Lebanon) killed one civilian and wounded seven others, including women.
\nOn 6 November 2025, two people were killed in southern Lebanon: one in a strike on a vehicle in Bint Jbeil, and another in a drone strike on a car in Blida.
\nOn 21 September, a drone strike in Bint Jbeil killed five individuals, including three children.
\nIn January 2025, unarmed civilians returning to their villages in southern Lebanon came under fire, resulting in 26 deaths (25 civilians and one Lebanese soldier) and more than 147 wounded.<\/p>\n

These repeated attacks constitute serious violations of international humanitarian law (IHL), particularly given the high number of civilian casualties and the damage to civilian infrastructure.
\nThey also deepen the suffering of communities already facing displacement, destroyed infrastructure, and prolonged insecurity. In overcrowded and resource-scarce settings such as Ain al-Hilweh, repeated strikes further worsen the vulnerability of refugees and undermine their limited protection options.
\nContinued attacks erode any fragile trust in ceasefire arrangements and risk further destabilizing the region, making humanitarian access more dangerous and disrupting critical lifesaving assistance.<\/p>\n
