The sound of ambulance sirens echoed
The sound of sirens could be heard as ambulances arrived at the blast site in Beirut’s Basta area.

Israel fighting war on two fronts
Israel is now fighting with Hamas as well as its ally Hezbollah in Palestine’s Gaza Strip. On October 7 last year, Hamas suddenly attacked Israel and massacred a large number of people. Israel attacked in retaliation. Meanwhile, the Lebanese organization Hezbollah also attacked Israel with missiles and drones recently. There has been a war-like situation between Hezbollah and Israel for the last 11 months. On the other hand, the Israeli Defense Minister says that this is the first phase of the war. After this the war will be fought in more phases.
