Within seconds, a devastating airstrike hit a residential building in Ain el Delb, Lebanon, trapping Hecham al-Baba under rubble and killing over 70, including his sister's family. Israel targeted the area, claiming it housed Hezbollah members. Survivors stress the high civilian toll and lack of evacuation warnings.
On a day meant for family warmth, tragedy struck Ain el Delb, Lebanon, as an Israeli airstrike hit a residential building, leaving over 70 dead. Among the victims was the family of Hecham al-Baba, visiting from Germany. The strike, targeting alleged Hezbollah members, illustrates Israel's tactic of high civilian tolls for military goals.
Residents, caught off guard without evacuation warnings, faced the immense aftermath, including al-Baba, who was trapped for hours under debris. While Israel justifies its military actions, survivors question the intelligence behind these operations, in a region seeing steep civilian casualties mirroring similar tactics in Gaza.
This shocking attack draws attention to Israel's intensified bombardment, raising grave concerns about the humanitarian impact and evoking questions regarding the standards of military intelligence and the heavy price paid by Lebanese civilians in the ongoing conflict.
