In this video series, we document the journey of independent journalist and human rights and international law advocate Dimitri Lascaris to southern Lebanon, where the situation is on the brink of war between Israel and Hezbollah.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

On August 22, 2024, Dimitri Lascaris visited the site of a destroyed residential building in the southern Lebanese village of Safad El Battikh. An Israeli airstrike had demolished the building about two weeks earlier.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

While standing on the remains of the building, Lascaris discussed the role of the UN Interim Forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL). Ostensibly, UNIFIL is a UN peacekeeping mission. It was established on 19 March 1978 by United Nations Security Council Resolutions 425 and 426.\u00a0During the forty-six years that UNIFIL has been present in south Lebanon, Israeli forces have repeatedly invaded and occupied the territory, destroyed Lebanese civilian infrastructure and killed large numbers of Lebanese civilians.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

At dawn today (August 25th), the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon launched a large-scale drone and missile attack on Israel. It also announced that the attack was retaliation for Israel’s assassination on July 31 of Hezbollah’s top military commander, Fuad Shukr.\u00a0Dimitri Lascaris is in Beirut, Lebanon. Hours after the attack began, he examined the nature of the attack and the possibilities for further escalation of the war in West Asia.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

These videos were produced by Dimitri Lascaris and published on his YouTube channel on August 24 & 25, 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n
