    Israeli occupation forces destroyed a historic religious shrine during
    their incursion into the village of Chamaa in southern Lebanon on
    Friday night, Lebanese media have reported. Lebanese sources revealed
    that the occupation forces deliberately rigged explosive charges on
    what is known as the Shrine of Shimon in Chamaa and completely
    destroyed it.

    The state-run National News Agency reported that the occupation forces
    withdrew from the hill where the shrine was located due to significant resistance from Hezbollah. A UN peacekeeping site nearby was hit by
    artillery fire as a result of the bombardments, according to the
    report.

    The UN peacekeeping forces said on Friday that a live 155mm artillery
    shell struck their headquarters in the western sector but did not
    explode. UNIFIL reported that Italian peacekeeping forces stationed
    there dealt with the shell safely, adding that no peacekeeping
    personnel were harmed in the strike.

    Since the start of its ground incursion into southern Lebanon, the
    occupation forces have blown up and demolished entire villages,
    employing a scorched earth policy to prevent Hezbollah from operating
    in areas near the border with the settler-colonial state.
