"An Israeli strike on a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon killed at least 13 people and wounded several others on Tuesday, Lebanon state media said. The drone strike hit a car in the parking lot of a mosque in the Ein el-Hilweh refugee camp on the outskirts of the coastal city of Sidon, according to the state-run National News Agency. Lebanon's Health Ministry reported "13 dead and a number of others wounded" in the strike, adding that "ambulances are still transporting more wounded to nearby hospitals.""
"Israel said that Tuesday's strikes targeted a Hamas training compound that was being used to prepare an attack against Israel and its army. The Israeli army said it would continue to act against Hamas wherever the group operates. Hamas, which is considered a terrorist group by the United States and the European Union, among others, denied having any such compounds in Palestinian camps in Lebanon and called Israel's claims "lies.""
