Country: Lebanon Source: Médecins Sans Frontières MSF condemns this attack on civilians in a highly populated area and calls for the protection of civilians and health facilities. Israeli forces struck a densely populated residential area in Beirut, Lebanon, on Sunday afternoon, about 300 feet from Rafik Hariri Public Hospital, where Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is supporting with an ER doctor. A mass-casualty influx followed: people bleeding, some carried on shoulders.
