Lebanon: One Million Displaced as War Expands
More than one million people in Lebanon have now fled their homes since the start of the war. This sharp increase in displacement comes as Israel expands its ground operation in the country.
The scale of the crisis is immense. Entire communities have been emptied. Many displaced families are living in overcrowded shelters or with relatives.
The United Nations calls the situation a major humanitarian emergency. Aid groups report severe shortages of food, clean water, and medical supplies.
The conflict began with cross-border strikes. It has escalated into a wider ground invasion by Israeli forces. Military officials state the goal is to stop rocket attacks.
Diplomatic efforts to secure a ceasefire have so far failed. Regional and international leaders continue urgent negotiations.
