Middle East crisis: Humanitarian crisis in Lebanon due to Israeli attacks, millions displaced

01 October,2024 11:56 AM IST

As the Middle East crisis rises, the conflict in Gaza has spread, with Israel launching attacks on Houthi targets. A significant escalation occurred on September 27 when Israel conducted a precise strike that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut`s suburbs. This intensification of military action has forced over 100,000 people to flee Lebanon into Syria, with many locals comparing the current situation to the war of 2006. According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, the ongoing Israeli operations have resulted in a sharp increase in civilian casualties. Israel asserts that its military actions comply with international law and emphasizes efforts to minimize harm to civilians. In under a year of conflict, Israeli strikes in Lebanon have claimed over 1,640 lives, with a substantial rise in casualties occurring in the past two weeks. Meanwhile, around 50 Israelis have lost their lives during the same period.
