An Israeli strike on an ambulance belonging to the Islamic Health Committee killed one paramedic and his patient on Sunday, the group's spokesperson said.

The incident came a day after at least nine first aid workers were killed by Israeli strikes on the south.

Some 47 aid workers have been killed since the war began, according to the #LebaneseHealthMinistry.

"A paramedic and a wounded person who was with him were killed in an Israeli raid on an ambulance in the town of Bint Jbeil," Islamic Health Committee spokesperson Mahmoud Karaki told AFP.

An image shared by Karaki showed a destroyed ambulance, set ablaze.

In a statement on social media, the Israeli military's Arabic-language spokesperson Avichay Adraee threatened that Israel would continue to strike ambulances, claiming that Hezbollah was using them for cover.

"We reiterate our confirmation that, as part of its terrorist activities, Hezbollah is making extensive military use of ambulances," he said.

On Saturday, Israeli strikes killed at least nine paramedics across the south, alongside several other deadly bombings, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

Israeli warplanes also broke the sound barrier over Beirut, causing panic
