Mum of twins who says home was bombed in Lebanon speaks to BBC

AI Summary

short article 2 min

A mother of newborn twins, identified as Ghada, told the BBC that her home in Lebanon was bombed, displacing her and destroying her belongings. She is among over one million people displaced in Lebanon due to intensified Israeli attacks on Hezbollah. Ghada and her babies are now sheltering in a university-turned-shelter in Sidon, Lebanon's third-largest city, which has taken in a large share of displaced families. The displacement is a result of escalating conflict, including Israeli strikes and Hezbollah rocket fire, despite a ceasefire agreement in 2024. Israel's Defence Minister stated plans to create a buffer zone in southern Lebanon, demolishing homes in villages near the Israeli border. The conflict intensified after Hezbollah fired rockets into northern Israel in retaliation for Israel's assassination of Iran's supreme leader.
