Lebanese Woman Martyred as Landmine Explodes in Marwaheen


A landmine left over from the "Israeli" offensive on Lebanon killed a woman and injured two other people in the southern town of Marwaheen on Tuesday.
The National News Agency reported that the 35-year-old woman, Nada Ghannam, was martyred and her body was taken to Salah Ghandour Hospital in Bint Jbeil.

A Lebanese army soldier was slightly injured while another woman was critically wounded in the incident, the agency added.
"After discovering the landmine, Ghannam carried it and tried to hand it over to a Lebanese army soldier. It exploded in her hand, killing her immediately, while the soldier and another woman who was in the location were wounded," NNA said.

Security forces immediately arrived on the scene, cordoned off the area and launched a probe into the incident, the agency went on to say.

The United Nations estimates that a million cluster bombs were dropped on Lebanon by the Zionist entity during July war in the year of 2006.
