Explosions rocked Beirut’s international airport as Israeli airstrikes targeted Hezbollah in the city, causing chaos and devastation. Lebanon reported 37 people killed and 151 wounded in the attacks, with two Lebanese army soldiers also losing their lives as the conflict escalated.
The Israeli military remained silent on the events, only confirming the killing of Hezbollah fighters near the border. Hezbollah retaliated, claiming to have targeted Israeli troops as well. The clashes intensified, with casualties mounting on both sides.
The Lebanese army, usually neutral, found themselves in the line of fire, suffering losses in clashes with Israeli forces. As tensions rose, more towns and villages in the south were ordered to evacuate for safety reasons.
The situation remains volatile and precarious, with no clear end in sight to the conflict. As the violence escalates, innocent civilians continue to bear the brunt of the fighting, caught in the crossfire of a bitter and long-standing feud between two powerful adversaries.
