Libanon

Completely insane footage of the Israeli army blowing up the Ali Taher ridge. The explosions were so powerful that they triggered a magnitude-4.1 earthquake in southern Lebanon, according to the US Geological Survey.

This comes amid reports of a new round of bilateral talks between Lebanon and Israel next week. Last month, Iran warned the US that it would retaliate forcefully against any Israeli attack on positions held by its Hezbollah ally on the ridge.

Israel has killed an average of seven children each day in Lebanon since March, according to the Save the Children relief organization.

"Over the last six months, Israel has killed at least 4,300 people, wounded over 12,000 and destroyed between 60 and 70 villages... The toll includes at least 257 children killed and 1,039 injured."

"A nationwide assessment conducted by Lebanon’s Ministry of Education and Higher Education has found that 340 schools have been damaged or destroyed in the past six months."

"At least 100,000 children are at risk of missing the next school year without urgent action to restore Lebanon’s schools,"

💢 Israeli forces have mostly leveled 48 of the roughly 60 villages and towns in occupied southern Lebanon, according to a New York Times analysis. Most of the destruction came after the April ceasefire.

The Times found the razing was largely carried out through controlled demolitions. Nearly all the destroyed villages were majority Shia, while Christian, Druze and Sunni villages were largely spared. About 270,000 people remain barred from returning home.

Israeli War Minister Israel Katz openly threatens to turn parts of southern Lebanon into a permanent Israeli-controlled “security zone,” warning that a ground invasion could seize more Lebanese territory and force mass displacement.

Katz also threatens to evacuate the entire Shiite population up to the al-Awali River and Beirut's Dahiyeh district, potentially displacing more than one million people inside Lebanon.

❗️Israeli tanks advanced toward the area around a religious seminary between the southern Lebanese towns of Aita al-Jabal and Beit Yahoun, before firing a shell at a house beside the seminary.

Another shell struck the area between Haddatha and Aita al-Jabal, while Israeli occupation forces carried out machine-gun fire toward the surrounding area.

Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz:

Look at what’s happening in Lebanon.

More than 60 villages in southern Lebanon, covering 700 square kilometers up to the Yellow Line, have been completely destroyed.

23,000 houses wiped out, including all underground tunnels. 200,000 residents are gone.

This is the Gaza model — and this is the model we are implementing.
