In a shocking turn of events, a series of explosions rocked Lebanon, leaving a trail of destruction and chaos in its wake. At least 20 people were killed, and over 450 injured, with many more reports of damage to homes, cars, and shops. The explosions, which occurred in multiple locations across the country, including the Bekaa Valley, Mount Lebanon, and the southern suburbs of Beirut, have sent shockwaves through the region.
As the dust settles, the blame game has begun, with both sides pointing fingers at each other. The Lebanese Army has asked citizens to avoid gathering in areas where the explosions occurred, allowing medical teams to tend to the wounded. The Lebanese Red Cross has mobilized over 30 ambulances to provide treatment and evacuations, with at least 95 people transferred to Iran for medical treatment. Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militant group, has also weighed in, condemning the attacks and vowing to continue its operations in support of Gaza. The group's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, is set to make a public address on Thursday, sparking fears of further escalation.
