Even more frightening, as Lebanese ministries announce, all 4 wounded victims of this blatant attack are reportedly civilians. This reminds me of AI-based warfare, with all its mistakes at the cost of human lives that @justinsalhani.bsky.social explained in his latest piece @thedialmag.bsky.social.

In the early morning hours, Israel targeted for the second time the inner circle of #Beirut. Donโ€˜t get me wrong, Dahyieh (southern suburbs) are as much a part of Beirut, as what Iโ€™m referring to as the โ€žinner circleโ€œ. Nevertheless, the latter are considered safe areas. The signals send are clear โฌ†๏ธ.

Lebanonโ€™s Ministry of Health reports 394 people died since Monday from Israeli attacks.

22 percent of those are children. Thatโ€™s 86 children in a week.

Great Article by @justinsalhani.bsky.social on the use of AI, Surveillance and the absence of control and responsibility in modern warfare in Palestine, Lebanon and Iran.

โ€žIn Lebanon, these drones allow Israel to occupy territory without settling it or putting soldiers at risk.โ€œ

Also, many of the displaced found shelter in such hotels. These attacks will ultimately lead to more panic and fear that will finally intensify a problem that already exists: people and places denying shelter. Also the message is clear: no place is safe in #Beirut.

Remember, the hotels are full of people whoโ€™ve fled, the displaced, and folks who, already has rooms took people in.

This is the first strike during this war that they hit the inner circle of Beirut. Until now, this area has been considered a safe neighborhood and district. Many of the displaced built up their shelters nearby at the Corniche. Horrific. #Lebanon #Beirut

Many Families are gathering at Martyrs Square and in Downtown #Beirut after the unprecedented Evacuation order for the whole Southern Suburbs (#Dahyieh). Shelters are already full with more than 80.000 disp. pers. in the last days. This is pure chaos. No one knows whatโ€™s coming next.

The IDF just ordered the forced evacuation of *all of Dahieh* a day after ordering the forced evacuation of all of South Lebanon.

Israel is taking advantage of the focus on Iran to destroy Lebanon

What is there more to say beyond rage.

They want to "evacuate" one of the densest suburbs of Beirut and have a quarter of a million+ people just move elsewhere and accept the fate of the destruction of their homes or worse the loss of their life.

Fucking nightmare.

This is unprecedented compared to the last war. Itโ€™s terrifying. If this means aerial Bombardements, this will lead to a even bigger displacement and Gaza like destruction of Beiruts Southern Suburbs. This has to stop now!

Wir leben in einer Zeit, in der das traditionell liberale Flaggschiff Deutschlands รผber den vรถlkerrechtswidrigen Krieg eines antidemokratische Imperialisten, der sich einen Dreck um die Menschen im Iran schert, ein Pro und Contra macht.

According to @nytimes.com, Israel โ€œclaimsโ€ parts of other countries โ€” it doesnโ€™t invade and occupy them

War planes have been flying overhead the last few minutes. Israel now gave evacuation orders to more locations in Dahiyeh.

Yes, we know and have known there are different rules and standards when it comes to our humanity. No one can continue to pretend we are seen equally or that we have the same rights to life, dignity, safety, etc.

Most of the world is focused on Iran or the GCC. Havenโ€™t heard much from international actors comment on Israel reclosing entry into Gaza or the disproportional response Israel is committing on Lebanon through mass displacement and constant attacks

๐Ÿ”ด๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งThe Israeli military has ordered all residents in southern Lebanon to move north of the Litani River.

This is area consists of dozens of villages close to the border.

The Lebanese government said the army has cleared it from Hezbollah military presence in recent months.

We congratulate everyone on the death of Khamenei.

The bitter taste about this is the fact that these actions were carried out by the fascist governments of Israel and America.

No one I know is mourning Khamenei because he was a mass murderer.

Weโ€™re worried because we also know what the Americans and Israelis are: mass murderers.

The Iranian regime is an autocratic one that has devastated lives at home and abroad. Its people deserve so much better.

So much better does not come through illegal strikes involving a genocidal actor that drag multiple countries into conflict and kill more civilians.

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as โ€œpreventiveโ€ is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of whatโ€™s happening as anything else than a crime.

You donโ€™t have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.
