Israel has kept up relentless attacks on towns in southern Lebanon, a day after US mediation appeared to have averted an immediate escalation of the war with threatened attacks on the capital, Beirut, Al Jazeera reports.
But the development has failed to reassure many Lebanese — 1.2 million of whom have been displaced — as the buzz of Israeli drones over Beirut keeps residents on edge.
“Every time we return to our homes, there is a warning for us to be displaced again,” says Faten al-Chehime, who fled to a makeshift camp from her residence in Beirut’s southern suburbs on Monday, only two weeks after returning home.
