Lebanon’s Hope Amid Ruins and Retreat | Roanoke News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Israeli troops are poised to withdraw from southern Lebanon as part of a deal to hand over territory to the Lebanese army and disarm Hezbollah, while families like those in Zawtar al-Gharbieh begin returning to rubble-strewn villages, determined to rebuild despite destroyed homes and lingering insecurity. The conflict erupted in March, leaving thousands of homes and villages in ruins, with Israeli forces still holding key areas and drones hovering overhead. Residents, including Mahasen Faqih who lives in her damaged shop, cling to hope for government aid and stability, even as local officials warn the withdrawal is incomplete and security remains fragile. Talks continue in Rome, aiming to expand pilot zones—but for now, the road to full liberation remains uncertain and fraught with hardship.
