‘They were targeting children and civilians’ 😭
Israeli forces are continuing to bombard residential areas in southern Lebanon, leaving a trail of devastation that has shattered the lives of thousands of families.
Hasan Omar, a resident of Saksakiyeh in Sidon, where recent attacks killed at least seven people and wounded 17 others, said the victims were exclusively families seeking refuge. “Children – they were targeting children and civilians. They ran away from Nabatieh, and they targeted them here; all children and women. The people fled from Nabatieh to look for a safe house,” he told Reuters.
Omar also questioned the intent behind the military’s actions: “Who is the Israeli military sending this message to? I don’t understand; nobody understands.”
Mohammed Dahaineh, a rescue worker in Tyre, described the frantic moments after a forced evacuation order from the Israeli military.
“First, the Israeli military issued a threat to the town, so we immediately came and told the people to evacuate because we didn’t know which house the air strike would hit,” Dahaineh told Reuters.
He noted that while the town was largely cleared, some people had remained behind before the bombardment began. “The town was completely evacuated, except for some families who stayed in their homes,” he explained.
“Then the air strike happened. We treated five wounded and five martyrs.”
