The Israeli Air Force bombed the Jiyeh power station in South Lebanon. This caused 10,000 to 15,000 tons of fuel to spill into the Mediterranean Sea; 55,000 tons burning; and the pollution of 120 kilometers of coastline. The UNHuman Rights Council (HRC) expressed its belief that this attack was premeditated and that the oil spill would affect two-thirds of Lebanon’s coastline.
