Ongoing attacks on Lebanon | 137 Syrian refugees, including 40 children, killed in less than ten days

Israeli airstrikes are continued on Lebanon for the ninth consecutive day. These airstrikes left 137 Syrian refugees, including 27 women and 40 children, dead.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) strongly condemns those attacks on peaceful civilians and calls upon the international community and humanitarian organisations to interfere immediately to protect civilians in the attacked areas, including Syrian refugees.
SOHR also calls for securing safe corridors for civilians to get out from the targeted areas and providing urgent humanitarian support to the affected families, such as food, medicines and shelter.
We, at SOHR, stress that Syrian refugees in Lebanon have no ties with the Lebanese Hezbollah, and that they are workers and displaced people who have been forced to leave their homeland, fleeing the war in Syria.
SOHR also calls for facilitating the return of refugees, who are not concerned about arrests, to their homeland and securing safe corridors for refugees, who do not want to stay in regime-controlled areas, to other zones of influence in Syria.
Accordingly, the number of Syrian refugees killed in Israeli attacks in Lebanon since the beginning of the war on Gaza has increased to 172, including 31 women and 45 children, as well as the injury of 21 others.
It is worth noting that Majdal Jendu village in the occupied Syrian Golan has experienced a horrific massacre that left 12 civilians, mostly children, dead. Tel Aviv and the Lebanese Hezbollah accused each others then of committing that massacre.
