Episode Details

Israel is systematically destroying bridges over the Litani River and key infrastructure in southern Lebanon as part of a campaign to establish a 10-kilometre security zone, effectively annexing 10% of Lebanese territory. The destruction has displaced roughly one million people northward, with aid agencies describing the humanitarian situation as catastrophic and unprecedented. Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong has registered formal protests with Israeli counterparts, while Hezbollah has vowed to fight for every inch of the contested land.
