‘We still live in fear’: escaping the attacks in Lebanon

Tens of thousands of people have been displaced in Lebanon. Khaled Hussein, 20, fled Syria as a child. He describes the bombing that forced his family to flee again.

Khaled Hussein filmed this video from his home near the Lebanese city of Nabatiyeh. It shows an Israeli airstrike just a few hundred meters away and hiding here on the base. As the bombing continued, Khaled and his family decided they had to escape. They are now among at least 800 people seeking shelter at this UN facility south of Beirut after fleeing fighting between Israel and Hezbollah. Since last week, Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon have killed more than 700 people and forced more than 90,000 from their homes. For Khaled, like many of the people sheltering here, it is not the first time he has been forced to flee the war. In just a few days, hundreds of such facilities have been set up across Lebanon to house people displaced by violence. Many of the people here are Syrian and Palestinian refugees living in Lebanon. For Imad Ahmed, a Palestinian refugee living in southern Lebanon, this is the third time he has had to flee a war with Israel. But this time he had to do it with his children. Outside, dozens of people hope to enter but are turned away because the facility doesn’t have the space to welcome them. The growing number of internally displaced people has Lebanese authorities concerned about a looming humanitarian crisis if fighting continues.
