Israel accuses Hezbollah of using Tibnin hospital; Beirut denies

What happened

L Orient Today reports that Israel has accused Hezbollah of using the Tibnin hospital in southern Lebanon for military activity, a charge explicitly denied by Beirut officials according to the same source.

The central claim remains unconfirmed in the supplied material and should be treated as hearsay until corroborated by another reliable source or a named official. The claim and denial both come amid ongoing accusations related to conflict dynamics in the south; however, the report does not provide independent confirmation or third-party verification of either position.

Use of civilian infrastructure such as hospitals for military purposes is a critical issue in the Lebanon-Israel conflict, often cited in allegations of violations of international humanitarian law, but such allegations require careful verification.
