UN human rights envoy Volker Türk said he was "horrified" by the Israeli attack on Monday near Beirut's Rafik Hariri University Hospital,
which killed at least 18 people, wounded dozens more and caused significant damage to the hospital. Türk said all parties to the conflict must take precautions to avoid harm to civilians and medical facilities. He also said all incidents involving hospitals must be thoroughly and immediately investigated. According to a CNN analysis, the attack on Rafik Hariri University Hospital did not occur in an area covered by an Israeli military evacuation order. The Israel Defense Forces said they struck "Hezbollah terror targets" in Monday's attack.
