These strikes killed 269 combatants and injured 188 others. The fatalities are distributed as follows:25 Iranian members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.53 members of the Lebanese Hezbollah.28 Iraqi persons.75 Iranian-backed Syrian militiamen.24 Iranian-backed non-Syrian militiamen.62 regime soldiers.Two unidentified persons.
In comparison, there have been 48 civilian victims, meaning about a 6-1 ratio of combatants to civilians.
The largest number of civilian victims seems to have been from this incident in early October where ten civilians, unfortunately, were killed:
The fatalities are a Yemeni doctor, his wife and his three children, a woman and her child, a young female doctor, another woman and a man.
That is indeed tragic. But they were not the target.
Three people, two members of Lebanese “Hezbollah” and one unidentified person, were also killed as a result of a direct airstrike on an apartment frequented by leaders of the “Resistance Axis” and vehicles parked in front of the building.Residents fear recurrence of Israeli airstrikes on residential buildings, where they urge the combatants to leave the buildings out of concern for their safety.
The civilian victims were human shields. The civilians who live there know this and complain about it. The neighborhood is known to be a place where lots of Iranian and Hezbollah members gather (the Iranian embassy is there.) A week earlier, Israel targeted a commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps as well as the son-in-law of Hassan Nasrallah in that neighborhood.
For some reason, even though this is well documented, the media and NGOs never even consider that Israel uses the same care in protecting civilians in Gaza and Lebanon as they do in Syria - and that every civilian death is the result of the terrorists hiding among them and using them for cover.
