Hezbollah changing tactics along Lebanon-Israel border

There is a notable increase in cross-border hostilities, with evolving tactics. Rockets launched from Lebanon now reach deeper into Israel, and Israel is targeting areas farther into Lebanon. An Israeli settlement was hit, not a military position, marking a shift. Hezbollah used a ground-to-air missile to down an Israeli drone. Hezbollah’s casualty rate dropped recently; it’s unclear if this reflects a strategy shift to minimize losses or an escalation in the conflict.

Hezbollah says attack on northern Israel in response to killing of Lebanese journalist

Lebanon’s Hezbollah says it fired rockets towards an Israeli army post in Shtoula, northern Israel, in response to the killing of Lebanese journalist Issam Abdallah and other civilians. Abdallah was killed and six other journalists were wounded – including two Al Jazeera reporters – in shelling on Friday by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, according to witnesses at the scene. Israeli retaliation followed, targeting several villages on the Lebanese side of the border. A pattern is emerging: Hezbollah primarily attacks the Shebaa Farms, a disputed area. However, when they retaliate to Israeli attacks, they target areas inside Israel. Israel may no longer be fighting on just two fronts; it appears […]

Syria earthquake: NGOs voice fears over slow & inadequate aid response

Engineers count cost of rebuilding in quake-hit, war-weary Syria

Engineers have been painstakingly assessing the safety of buildings in northwestern Syria, which was devastated by earthquakes this month after years of conflict and bombardments that had already destroyed homes and hospitals. Since the first earthquake struck the Turkey-Syria border region on February 6, hundreds of families in Idlib have been sheltering on agricultural land. Their homes were either flattened or so damaged that they were rendered uninhabitable. The Syrian Engineers Association in Idlib is working with the local administration to check buildings that are still standing after the earthquakes and thousands of powerful aftershocks.

‘They are all gone’: Syrians feel angered by absence of help

In northern Syria, disaster is overlapping disaster. The damage, in a region already ravaged by war, from last week’s earthquakes has been enormous and entire communities have been forced to leave their homes. Aid from across the border has finally begun to arrive, but activists and emergency teams have criticised the slow response to the disaster and people living their worry that it is too little, too late.
