Israeli forces conducted a deadly airstrike on the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp in Lebanon, resulting in the deaths of at least 13 individuals. This attack is among the most severe since the temporary cease-fire with Hezbollah was established about a year ago. On Tuesday, members of the Lebanese Army were seen at the entrance of the camp, presumably to evaluate the aftermath of the strike.
The Ain al-Hilweh camp, home to approximately 25,000 displaced persons, has been a focal point of conflict in the region. The strike reportedly caused extensive damage to the camp’s infrastructure, raising concerns about the safety of the residents. Lebanese officials have expressed deep condemnation over the attack, emphasizing the need for de-escalation and humanitarian aid for the displaced.
International reactions to the strike have been mixed. While some countries have called for an immediate investigation into the incident, others have urged both sides to respect the cease-fire and avoid further violence. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah continues to strain regional stability, with both sides facing increasing pressure to find a lasting resolution.
