South Lebanon: 'It's torture, they are razing our lives before our eyes'

Day after day, the village of Mansouri, situated on a green hill south of Tyre, is slowly vanishing under Israeli occupation. Already ravaged during the war, the village is now being eradicated, ironically during a ceasefire. The Israeli army, a key player in the recent months, is leaving no stone unturned. Explosives and air strikes have been unleashed with unwavering intensity, causing immense distress among the roughly 5,000 residents.

The Israeli army portrays the village as a strategic stronghold of Hezbollah, despite it being outside the "Yellow Line" – a "security" demarcation drawn by Israel on Lebanese territory shortly after the ceasefire. Despite this, the village has been partially engulfed by the Yellow Line, dividing it into two. Residents, who had returned to the area this summer, were forced to flee once more under Israeli air force fire.
