On 8 October 2023, the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, taking advantage of the Israel–Hamas war, fired guided rockets and artillery shells at Israeli positions in the disputed Shebaa Farms.[42] Israel retaliated by launching drone strikes and artillery shells at Hezbollah positions near Lebanon's boundary with the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. The outbreak of the conflict had followed Hezbollah's declaration of support and praise for the Hamas attack on Israel, which took place on 7 October.[43][44] Clashes subsequently escalated to reach other parts of the Israel-Lebanon border and onto Syria and the occupied Golan Heights. It is currently the largest escalation of the Hezbollah–Israel conflict to have occurred since the 2006 Lebanon War.

In northern Israel, the ongoing conflict has forced approximately 96,000 individuals to leave their homes, while in Lebanon, more than 100,000 individuals have been displaced.[45]

Between 21 October 2023 to 20 February 2024 the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) recorded an estimate of 7,948 artillery fired from the south of the blue line (From Lebanon to Israel), while 978 were fired from the north side (from Israel to Lebanon).[46]

Background

Hezbollah is a Shiite militant organization that controls southern Lebanon and is supported and funded by Iran and reportedly serves as their proxy in regional wars.[47] From the inception of Hezbollah to the present[48][49][50][51] the elimination of the state of Israel has been a primary goal for Hezbollah. Hezbollah opposes the government and policies of the State of Israel, and Jewish civilians who arrived following 1948.[52] Its 1985 manifesto reportedly states "our struggle will end only when this entity [Israel] is obliterated. We recognize no treaty with it, no ceasefire, and no peace agreements."[53] Hezbollah has fought many conflicts with Israel including the South Lebanon conflict, the Shebaa Farms conflict, and the 2006 Lebanon War.

The elimination of the state of Israel has been a primary goal for Hezbollah.[54] According to Dr. Joseph Alagha, Hezbollah "only regards the Jews living in Israel as Zionists, who should be killed".[55]

Since the 1948 Palestinian expulsion and flight, Palestinian refugees have had a presence in southern Lebanon and numerous refugee camps were established, which brought many Palestinian factions into south Lebanon, with it being often used as a center to launch rockets into northern Israel, The Palestine Liberation Organization was based in Lebanon after being expelled from Jordan they were involved in an insurgency until they were expelled to Tunis after the 1982 Lebanon War.[56]

The outbreak of the Hamas-Israel war had followed Hezbollah's declaration of support and praise for the Hamas attack on Israel, which took place on 7 October, in which Palestinian factions in Lebanon immediately took part in.[43][44]

April 2023 skirmishes

On 6 April 2023, in response to the 2023 Al-Aqsa clashes, dozens of rockets were fired from Lebanon into Israel, injuring three Israeli civilians.[57] The Israel Defense Forces said that it intercepted 25 rockets fired from Lebanon,[57] which it said were fired by Palestinian factions Hamas and PIJ with Hezbollah's approval.[58]

The attacks were the largest escalation between the two countries since the 2006 Lebanon War.[58] The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) described the situation as "extremely serious" and urged restraint.[58]

15 July

The IDF fired warning shots and used riot dispersal means at 18 people, including journalists and parliamentarians that crossed the border from Lebanon and walked 80 meters into Israeli-occupied territory.[59]

Events

Shebaa farms attack and response

IDF footage of strike on Hezbollah infrastructure in the Shebaa Farms

In the morning of 8 October, Hezbollah fired rockets and shells at the Shebaa Farms region in support of Hamas' attack onto Israel; in response, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) fired artillery shells and a drone into southern Lebanon.[60][61][62] Two Lebanese children were reportedly injured by broken glass.[63]

The next day, Israel exchanged a series of airstrikes on southern Lebanon near the towns of Marwahin, Ayta ash Shab[64] and Dhayra in the Bint Jbeil district.[65] This was after numerous Palestinian militants infiltrated the Israeli border.[66] The IDF killed at least two perpetrators (likely Palestinians),[65] while a third returned to Lebanon.[67] A Hezbollah media source announced that one of their members died in the IDF retaliation. Hezbollah denied involvement in the incident, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad militia claimed responsibility for the armed infiltration. Hezbollah later announced the death of two other militants at night.[68] Hezbollah fired rockets and artillery in retaliation.[69] During the clashes, two Israeli soldiers and Lt. Col Alim Abdallah, Deputy Commander of the IDF's 300th Brigade, died of wounds inflicted by enemy fire on the border and another three were wounded.[70]

On 11 October, Hezbollah fired anti-tank missiles at an IDF position and claimed to have produced casualties. In response, the IDF shelled the area where the attack was launched.[71] The Lebanese-Italian hospital in Tyre admitted three injured civilians.[72] The IDF ordered residents of northern Israel to seek shelter following reports of drones being launched from southern Lebanon.[73] A Patriot missile was launched to intercept a suspicious projectile, after which the IDF found that the object in question was not a drone.[74] Warning sirens were activated across northern Israel after reports emerged that up to 20 infiltrators on paragliders had entered Israeli territory from Lebanon, before the IDF dismissed the report as a false alarm.[75]

Escalation

Hezbollah deputy chief Sheikh Naim Qassem said that 'when time comes for any action, we will carry it out' stating that Hezbollah was ready and 'would "contribute" to confrontations against Israel according to its own plan'.[76] The IDF fired artillery into southern Lebanon following an explosion that caused minor damage to a section of the Israel–Lebanon border wall near the kibbutz of Hanita.[77]

The IDF released footage of a drone attack which, according to them, killed three infiltrators from Lebanon near Margaliot who were members of Hamas.[78] One of them was acknowledged by Hezbollah as one of their members. In the afternoon, Hezbollah fired 50 mortar shells and six anti-tank missiles towards five Israeli outposts in the Shebaa Farms.[79] Further IDF shelling killed two civilians in a Shebaa village; video and photographic evidence showed usage of phosphorus bombs.[80]

On 15 October, Hezbollah launched five anti-tank missiles towards northern Israel killing one civilian and injuring three others in Shtula.[81][82] UNIFIL said that their headquarters in Naqoura in southern Lebanon was hit by rocket fire with no casualties reported.[83] Lieutenant Amitai Granot, commander of the 75th Battalion of the IDF's Golan Brigade and son of Rabbi Tamir Granot, was killed in a missile attack on an IDF post bordering Lebanon.[84][85]

Killing of Issam Abdallah

On 13 October, while a group of Reuters, AFP and Al Jazeera journalists were transmitting a live video feed of an IDF outpost in Aalma ech Chaab, two tank rounds fired directly hit the group. The first killed Reuters photojournalist Issam Abdallah. The second strike was much more powerful and ignited the Al Jazeera vehicle, a white Toyota, which Al Jazeera journalists Carmen Joukhadar and Elie Brakhya, as well as their AFP colleague Dylan Collins were standing next to.[86] Reuters' photographer Christina Assi was also critically injured.[87][88] Lebanon's army has said the IDF fired the missile that killed Abdallah. Another Reuters reporter at the scene said Abdallah was killed by projectiles fired from the direction of Israel.[89] His last post on Instagram, posted a week before he was killed, was a photograph of Shireen Abu Akleh, a Palestinian journalist for Al Jazeera Arabic who had been killed by Israel in 2022.[90][91]

A February 2024 report by the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon concluded that an Israeli tank killed Abdallah when it fired at "clearly identifiable journalists", and that this broke international law. The report "assessed that there was no exchange of fire across the Blue Line at the time of the incident", with no records of any exchange of fire across the border for the 40 minutes before the tank firing.[92] The IDF responded to the report by claiming that Hezbollah attacked them, prompting them to retaliate with tank fire.[92]

Further clashes and retaliations

October 2023

On 16 October, Amnesty International reported that the IDF fired white phosphorus shells into Dhayra, hospitalizing nine civilians and setting fire to civilian objects.[93] Aya Majzoub, Amnesty International's Deputy Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa, described the attack as a violation of international law that needed to be investigated as a war crime, and that it "seriously endangered the lives of civilians, many of whom were hospitalized and displaced, and whose homes and cars caught fire".[94]

Lebanese state media reported that Dhayra and other areas along the western section of the border came under "continuous" bombardment overnight.[95] In the early morning it was reported that multiple people were suffering from symptoms of suffocation after the IDF allegedly fired white phosphorus shells on the village.[96] Three people were injured after an anti-tank missile from Lebanon landed in the Israeli town of Metula.[97] The IDF said it had killed four would-be infiltrators along the Lebanese border as they attempted to plant bombs on the border wall.[98] Hezbollah announced that five of its members were killed on the same day but it was unclear if any had involvement in the border infiltration.[99]

On 19 October, the Lebanese army said that one was killed and another injured after a group of seven Iranian journalists were targeted with machine guns by Israel, although Iranian state media denied the claim and said that all its journalists were "alive and healthy".[100][101] UNIFIL peacekeepers said that one person was killed after civilians were caught in a cross-fire at the border in which the Lebanese Army requested assistance by UNIFIL to deescalate the situation. It was requested to Israel to suspend fire "to facilitate the rescue operation".[102][101]

In the early afternoon of 21 October, several rockets were fired from Lebanon toward the Shebaa Farms; there were no injuries. The IDF conducted a drone strike on the team of militants that launched the rockets.[103] A short while later, anti-tank guided missiles were fired from Lebanon toward Margaliot and Hanita; two foreign workers were injured.

Ceasefire

Hezbollah told Al Jazeera that it will "respect" the temporary ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.[148]

After the temporary ceasefire between Israel and Hamas on 24 November, Hezbollah stopped its military operations briefly which also prompted the IDF to stop the shelling on targets in southern Lebanon.[149] Many displaced civilians returned to their homes amid the calm.[150] However, during the ceasefire Hezbollah claimed 23 other attacks into northern Israel.[151]

A UNIFIL patrol unit was hit by IDF gunfire in the vicinity of Aitaroun where there were no casualties.

On 1 April, an Israeli airstrike targeting an Iranian consulate annex building adjacent to the Iranian embassy in Damascus, Syria killed eight people, including a senior Quds Force commander of the IRGC, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi.[237] The others fatalities included five members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and two Iranian advisors.[238]

On 8 April, Israeli officials confirmed that Hebollah fighters shot down a Hermes 900 drone, the first of its type lost during the conflict.[239]

On 13 April, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), a branch of the Iranian military, in collaboration with the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces, Hezbollah, and the Yemeni Houthis, launched attacks against Israel with drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles.[240]

On 17 April, fourteen Israeli soldiers were wounded by drones in northern Israel.[241]

Casualties and damage

Lebanon

The olive trade in southern Lebanon, which is the main source of income for many, was halted as farmers stopped their harvests in fear of the active shelling.[242][243] According to Agriculture Minister Abbas Hajj Hassan, 40,000 olive trees were burned down by fires caused by IDF shelling.[244] The ministry has also said that 790 hectares of agricultural land have been damaged and 340 thousand farm animals have been lost.[245]

The Institute of International Finance predicted that Lebanon's GDP could decline by one percent by the end of the year and by 30 percent in 2024 in the event of further spillover of the war.[246]

Numerous towns inhabited by Christians in southern Lebanon have been targeted the most by IDF, drawing the population out. The Jerusalem Post claims that Hezbollah intentionally draws fire to the Christian areas.[247] Christians in the town of Rmaich clashed with Hezbollah due to the organization's attempts to establish military infrastructure in the town.[248] A video showing a nun at a Lebanese Christian school asking students to pray for Hezbollah men defending Lebanon went viral; some praised the video while others criticized it.[249]

The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that 90,000 Lebanese were displaced from their homes. On 5 February, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Abdallah Bou Habib, said that around 100,000 were displaced in Lebanon.[250] As of 21 February 2024, the Ministry of Public Health of Lebanon reported 914 people wounded.[251] As of 21 March 2024, according to OCHA, 54 Lebanese civilians have been killed including 31 women and children, three journalists and seven Hezbollah-backed rescue workers.[245]

An Israeli artillery strike on 13 October killed Reuters videographer Issam Abdallah and injured six other journalists from Reuters, Agence France-Presse and Al Jazeera.[252] Two other journalists from Al Mayadeen were also killed.

At least 200 militants were killed. 157 Hezbollah members, including at least 10 in Syria, 16 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad members, one Amal Movement member and one SSNP member. One Lebanese army soldier was killed and three others were injured. [citation needed]

Israel

At least 65,000 civilians were displaced in a mass evacuation from northern Israel. Six Israeli civilians were killed. On 5 November, two Israeli civilians were killed. One was killed when anti-tank missiles hit the Yiftah kibbutz and another in Kiryat Shmona.[113] On 23 November, in Hezbollah's deadliest attack since the start of the clashes, Hezbollah anti-tank missile and mortar attacks killed an employee of the Israel Electric Corporation who was conducting repair work and injured 21 other Israelis, including seven IDF soldiers and six of the fatality's colleagues.[126][127]

In a letter sent on 28 December 2023 to the President of the Security Council from Israel's UN Permanent Representative stated, “attacks have already led to the deaths of 5 civilians and 11 soldiers, and to the injuries of 41 civilians and 127 soldiers”.[46] As of January 2024, more then 500 home in northern Israel have been reported damaged by Hezbollah fire since the war began.[253]

War crimes

Killing of Lebanese civilians

On 5 November, an Israeli airstrike hit a car near Ainata, Lebanon, killing three children and their grandmother, and injuring their mother. The Israeli military admitted to striking the vehicle.[254] Human Rights Watch stated that their killings should be investigated as an apparent war crime.[255] Najib Mikati, Lebanon's caretaker prime minister, called the attack a "heinous crime" and said that Lebanon would file a complaint to the U.N. Security Council.[254]

Killing of an Israeli civilian

The most notable of the attacks was on 12 November where a Hezbollah anti-tank missile killed an employee of the Israel Electric Corporation who was conducting repair work and injured 21 other Israelis, including seven IDF soldiers and six of the fatality's colleagues.[126][127][clarification needed]

Targeting of journalists

According to the Council of Europe, the intentional targeting of journalists constitutes a war crime.[256] During the conflict, Reporters Without Borders claimed that the Israeli army had deliberately targeted journalists.[257][258][259] A Reporters Without Borders (RSF) investigation said that Israel had targeted journalists in missile strikes on 13 October that killed Reuters reporter Issam Abdallah and injured four others. These two Israeli missile strikes, 30 seconds apart, hit a group of seven journalists in southern Lebanon who were reporting on the border fighting between Israel and Hezbollah. In a video, the journalists are seen wearing vests and helmets identifying them as "PRESS". The marking was also present on the roof of their car, which exploded after being hit by the second missile.[260] The Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research, which tests and analyses munitions and weapons, assisted Reuters by examining the material collected at the site of the explosion and found that the piece of metal was the fin of a 120 mm tank round fired 1.34 km away from the border fired from a smoothbore tank gun.[261]

On 26 December, Hezbollah's anti-tank missile hit next to Channel 13 News team while interviewing a farmer at Dovev, in an article following a prior Hezbollah assault that killed a 56-year-old employee of the Israel Electric Corporation, and injured five workers who were repairing electric lines.[262]

Hezbollah's use of human shields

The IDF claims that Hezbollah's weapons and militants are "systematically embedded in civilian areas".[263]

There have also been claims that Hezbollah intentionally draws fire to Christian areas in southern Lebanon.[247] Christians in the town of Rmaich clashed with Hezbollah due to the organization's attempts to establish military infrastructure in the town. The residents also wrote a complaint letter.[248] On March 26, 2024 civilians in Rmeich confronted militants and rang their church bells after Hezbollah attempted to place rocket launchers in the town. Hezbollah denied trying to fire rockets from Rmiesh.[264] A Lebanese Christian from the town of Ain Ebel saw Hezbollah fighters setting up a launcher on his rooftop. After pleading with them, he fled his home with his family and his house was bombed minutes later by IDF airstrike.[265]

On 16 October, 20 rocket launchers were discovered by the Lebanese army in the town of Qlaiaa which have been suspected to be a part of Hezbollah infrastructure.[266] Four reportedly had rockets inside of them and were ready to be fired.[267] They were immediately dismantled by the Lebanese army.[268]

After an attack which killed a Lebanese Army soldier and injured three, the Alma research and education center said that the incident occurred in an area where Hezbollah conducts military operations and designates as a military zone and that Hezbollah has been using this region to launch mortars and rockets and conduct observations towards Israel. The IDF accuses Hezbollah of intentionally placing its activities near Lebanese Army Forces (LAF) posts, using the LAF troops as human shields.[269] Alma also suggests collaboration between some LAF soldiers and Hezbollah, particularly among Shiite soldiers, who make up about 45 percent of the LAF. Alma also released satellite evidence showing Hezbollah military zones operating next to UNIFIL centers and schools.[269]

Between 23 and 25 December, misleading reports emerged on X (Twitter) which portrayed the IDF shelling of the vicinity of the Saint Mamas monastery in Deir Mimas as a direct targeting of a religious site during the Christmas season in which Doha News even reported on and said the incident is "signaling a broader pattern of Israeli aggression against religious sites and civilian sanctuaries".[270] However, the Alma research center showed satellite evidence of Hezbollah's use of the monastery's vicinity to launch attacks and has been doing so since the 2006 Lebanon War.[271][272]

Hezbollah and the Amal Movement has used civilian organizations as a cover-up for there military activities. According to IDF's Arabic spokesman, Avichay Adraee, Hezbollah-run yellow ambulances have been used to transport fighters and weapons. The Islamic Health Authority's website says it has “provided services for the activity of the Hezbollah fighters against the Zionist occupation.”[273] Hezbollah has also reportedly used the environmental NGO Green Without Borders to provide direct cover for Hezbollah's military operations by harassing UN patrols and carrying out missile attacks on Israel, to obstructing UN surveillance cameras at the border with deliberately placed trees.[274]

IDF's use of white phosphorus

On 31 October, after an investigation, Amnesty International stated that an Israeli white phosphorus attack on 16 October was indiscriminate, unlawful, and "must be investigated as a war crime", due to its use on the populated Lebanese town of Dhayra, which injured at least nine civilians.[275][276] On 2 November, Amnesty International stated its investigations into four incidents on October 10, 11, 16 and 17 showed Israel had used white phosphorus munitions.[277] The claim was confirmed by the Washington Post, which identified two white phosphorus shell casings made in the US.[278] In southern Lebanon, Israel's white phosphorus bombs have destroyed over 4.5 million square meters of forest with economic loses being valued at nearly US$20 million.[279]

Targeting of medical and religious sites

The targeting of hospitals, as well as religious sites, constitutes a war crime.[280]

The IDF shelled Meiss Ej Jabal Hospital, injuring a doctor on 10 November. The missiles did not explode but caused damage to the emergency department and a number of cars. The Lebanese health ministry condemned the attack, saying that "Israeli authorities were fully responsible for this unjustifiable act, which would have led to catastrophic results", and called for an investigation.[123] Days before, four people were reportedly injured after an Israeli bombing that hit two ambulances. The Lebanese National News Agency said that an Israeli drone strike hit two ambulances belonging to the Risala Scout association which is affiliated with the Amal Movement[114]

On 26 December 2023, an anti-tank missile shot by Hezbollah fighters from Lebanon damaged a shed in a church compound in Iqrit, but not the church itself.[281] The civilian man who was guarding the church suffered moderate wounds. He is in his 80s.[281] As IDF troops and medical services were working to evacuate him, they were hit by further missiles, which resulted in nine soldiers being wounded, one of them seriously.[282][283]

On 11 January 2024, the IDF conducted strikes in the town of Hanine and targeted an emergency center affiliated with the Hezbollah-backed Islamic Health Authority. The attack killed two workers from the rescue force and destroyed an ambulance.[284] Other attacks on Islamic Health Authority centers occurred in Kafr Kila, Odaisseh and Blida killed 7 paramedic and rescue workers and destroyed 17 ambulances.[285]

On 27 March 2024, an Israeli airstrike targeted a paramedic center affiliated with the Islamic Group in Hebbariye, killing seven volunteer paramedics. The airstrike was condemned by the Lebanese Ministry of Health.[231] Later in the day, Israeli airstrikes in Tayr Harfa killed two paramedics from the Islamic Health Society, while strikes in Naqoura killed one from the Amal Movement-affiliated Islamic Risala Scout Association.[233]

Reactions

 
Secretary Blinken meets with Lebanese Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati in Amman, Jordan.

As a result of the fighting, Swiss International Air Lines and Lufthansa suspended flights to Beirut, while Lebanon's flag carrier Middle East Airlines relocated five of its 24 aircraft to Istanbul as a precaution. Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom advised against travelling to Lebanon, whilst the British embassy withdrew family members of its staff.[286]

On 4 November, United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken thanked prime minister Najib Mikati during a meeting in Amman "in preventing Lebanon from being pulled into a war that the Lebanese people do not want".[287]

French Armed Forces Minister Sébastien Lecornu announced that France would donate dozens of armoured vehicles to the Lebanese military to help it carry out patrol missions.[288]

United States Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin expressed concern about Israel's role in ongoing tensions with Lebanon.[289]

Lebanon

After the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion in Gaza, pro-Palestinian protestors took part in riots in the towns of Dbayeh and Aoukar. Businesses were vandalized and torched.[290]

On 6 November, in response to the killing of four civilians in southern Lebanon, Prime Minister Najib Mikati announced that his government would submit an urgent complaint to the UN Security Council against Israel saying that its "targeting of civilians in its aggression against Lebanon" was a "heinous crime".[291]

Opposition to Hezbollah and Hamas

The most important thing is not to involve the Lebanese in anything that they cannot deal with, in light of the difficult situation they are experiencing.

7 October 2023[292]

As tensions heightened on 8 October near the Lebanese border, former prime minister Fouad Siniora stressed that Lebanon should not be involved "in any hostilities with the Israeli enemy".[293]

Between 7–9 October, many politicians of long established Christian parties in Lebanon took a stance against Hezbollah's involvement as well. Pierre Bou Assi, a member of the Lebanese Forces' Strong Republic bloc highlighted the kidnapping of two IDF soldiers which led to the 2006 Lebanon war saying, "Hassan Nasrallah promised, in early July, that the summer would be quiet and thriving—but a few days later, Hezbollah kidnapped two Israeli soldiers and the July war broke out".[293] The Kataeb Party took a similar stance and condemned the use of Lebanese territory by non-state actors for launching attacks on Israel.[293]

Screens at Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport were hacked allegedly by the Christian group Jnoud al-Rab to display an anti-Hezbollah message. Jnoud al-Rab denied any involvement.[294]

On 28 January 2024, Bechara Boutros al-Rahi, Maronite Patriarch and head of the Maronite Church, stated that residents of southern Lebanon refuse to be used as "sacrificial lambs" in what he described as a "culture of death", implicitly referencing Hezbollah's border activities. He described the hardships faced by the people, including psychological strain and disrupted education for children, and said they refuse to be hostages or human shields.[295]

On 4 December 2023, Hamas announced the organization's official establishment in Lebanon. The Lebanon-based unit was named the “al-Aqsa Flood Vanguards unit”.[296][297] The establishment of the Vanguards during the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel faced severe criticism from various political figures and factions within Lebanon. Many argued that such an organization, with potential military implications, could infringe upon Lebanon's sovereignty and violate international resolutions, particularly the Taif Agreement. Critics, including members of the Christian Lebanese Forces Party and other political figures, voiced concerns about a potential recurrence of historical issues related to armed Palestinian factions operating from Lebanese territory.[297][13]

Iraq

On 9 January, the Kata'ib Hezbollah spokesperson Jafar al-Husseini warned that the Islamic Resistance in Iraq would help Hezbollah fight Israel if war erupted between the two sides.[298] This statement was a few weeks after the Islamic Resistance in Iraq claimed responsibility for a drone attack on a Karish rig which Lebanon claims to hold sovereignty to.[299]

Other incidents

On 8 November 2023, two men were arrested by Brazilian police in São Paulo following a warning from the Mossad that Hezbollah was planning an attack against the country's Jewish community. Searches were also conducted in Brasilia and Minas Gerais in connection with the alleged plot.[300]

Humanitarian response

The Lebanon Humanitarian Fund launched its reserve allocation that includes up to four million dollars to support its partners to help aid those who have been displaced or still in conflict zones.[301]
