Beirut Under Siege: Israel’s Expanded Campaign Hits Hard

 

The Lebanese capital, Beirut, has been rocked by heavy airstrikes as Israel expands its military campaign in Lebanon. The strikes have primarily targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut, an area known to be a stronghold of Hezbollah.

Since Friday, Israeli forces have intensified their bombardment, making it difficult for rescue workers to access affected areas. The strikes have caused significant damage and heightened tensions in the region. Lebanese security sources report that the ongoing attacks have hampered efforts to search for survivors and provide aid to those affected.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have stated that their operations are aimed at neutralizing Hezbollah targets, which they claim are embedded within civilian areas. This escalation follows a series of cross-border incidents and rising hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

The international community has expressed concern over the increasing violence and its potential to destabilize the region further. Calls for a ceasefire and diplomatic resolution have been growing louder as the situation continues to unfold.
