long article 6 min

A year after the November 2024 ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel, over 64,000 Lebanese people remain displaced from their homes, primarily in the south of Lebanon. The conflict, which escalated in September 2024 and included a two-month Israeli intensification, resulted in thousands of deaths and widespread destruction of civilian infrastructure. While the ceasefire agreement stipulated a withdrawal of Hezbollah forces north of the Litani River and an Israeli troop withdrawal, Israel continues to occupy five points in southern Lebanon and has razed villages. Displaced residents report receiving insufficient support from the Lebanese government and Hezbollah to rebuild their lives and homes. The war displaced an estimated 1.2 million people, more than a quarter of the Lebanese population.
