Thanks to the Israeli government " What was once a densely populated, lively community is now a landscape of collapsed concrete, twisted metal and exposed wires." The attempted land grab in Lebanon continues.

Israel has killed 2,500 people in Lebanon in the last 2 months, including 177 children. Then there’s Palestine and Iran. We will not let any British political leader tell us we can’t oppose this murderous regime. We will defy you.

With the main focus of our attention on the Gulf, Israeli strikes in Lebanon look like war crimes. This must be taken seriously.

Israel deliberately targeting medical facilities in south Lebanon, say health workers

Medics and officials say there is systematic use of double-tap strikes in campaign to make the south uninhabitable
