We speak with journalist Lylla Younes in Lebanon, where she says Israel's "massacres are multiplying" amid the broader U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. Israeli strikes have killed nearly 700 people in Lebanon over the past two weeks, while attacks have expanded to include areas of central Beirut, which Israel claims are aimed at the powerful Hezbollah militia. This comes as Israel has vowed to expand its incursion into southern Lebanon.
"The vast majority of southern Lebanon is now under displacement orders," says Younes. "That is approximately 15% of the country."
