Escalating Conflict in Lebanon Triggers Mass Exodus to Syria

As violence intensifies between Israel and Hezbollah, thousands of Lebanese civilians are fleeing to Syria, reminiscent of the fears associated with the 2006 war. Israel's airstrikes have led to the displacement of over 90,000 people in just three days, with many fleeing their homes in panic. The humanitarian situation is worsening, with churches opening their doors to provide shelter and aid. Amid these hostilities, Lebanon's Christians find themselves divided in their support for Hezbollah, as they grapple with the harsh realities of escalating violence and the terrifying prospect of a ground invasion. Community efforts are underway, but with tensions rising, the future remains uncertain.
