Beirut wakes up to devastation. In one of the most intense escalations since early March, Israel has launched a sweeping wave of airstrikes across Lebanon, pounding central Beirut, the Bekaa Valley, and southern regions with over 100 strikes in a matter of hours. The assault comes just hours after a fragile US-Iran ceasefire, raising urgent questions about the region’s stability. Lebanese authorities report at least 254 people killed and over 1,100 injured, with emergency services overwhelmed as ambulances race through shattered streets. Hospitals are struggling to cope with the influx of victims, while civilians flee amid smoke-filled skies and collapsing infrastructure. WATCH
