Israel attacked a Lebanese cemetery during a funeral in the town of Shamstar. Mohamad Sahli, a journalist from Al Mayadeen TV channel, told Izvestia on April 9.

"According to preliminary estimates, we are talking about at least 10 dead and about 18 injured, while people have injuries of varying severity, but this is certainly not the final number," he said.

It is noted that the attack was carried out at the time of the gathering of worshippers at the funeral ceremony. In addition, the correspondent provided information about the shelling of the Karak area and the village of Sakhmar.
