Lebanon’s caretaker minister, Ali Hamieh, visited the site of an Israeli strike in Beirut on September 20, where a top Hezbollah commander, Ahmed Wahbi, was killed. Hamieh accused Israel of “taking the region to war” and described the strike as a massacre against civilians, with at least 31 casualties, including children and women. The Israeli military confirmed the deaths of Wahbi and other elite Hezbollah members, escalating the ongoing conflict. Following these events, tens of thousands have evacuated from homes along the Israel-Lebanon border.
