Israel has been launching attacks in Beirut which they deemed among the worst so far using ‘bunker buster’ bombs on a densely populated area in south Beirut.
The attack was aimed at assassinating the next Hezbollah potential leader Hashem Safieddine.
Amid Israel’s escalated attacks in Beirut, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, stressed that the Israeli occupation would never achieve victory over the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon.
Earlier this week, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) confirmed that it fired missiles at Israel in response to the Israeli attacks against people in Gaza and Lebanon, as well as the assassinations of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. The IRGC was targeting the Israeli occupation’s military base in Tel Aviv.
Speaking on VOC’s PM Drive on Friday, a journalist based in Lebanon, Sara Matar, described the humanitarian situation as “catastrophic.”
“We are talking about 1.2 million displaced Lebanese, Syrian refugees, and other nationalities living in Lebanon. The numbers are climbing every single minute,” explained Matar.
