BEIRUT, Lebanon, April 30 (UPI) -- Lebanon is building a case against Israel to hold it accountable for alleged violations of international humanitarian law, including direct attacks on civilians, the killing of entire families, the leveling of multi-story residential buildings, and large-scale demolitions in the southern border area, rendering it uninhabitable.
The Lebanese government, along with multiple local and international organizations, has been actively documenting Israeli violations, particularly since the Nov. 27, 2024, ceasefire that was intended to halt the Israel-Hezbollah war, which began on Oct. 8, 2023. Israel continued to carry out attacks in Lebanon despite the truce, while Hezbollah remained inactive until it resumed fighting on March 2.
Lebanese civilians who lost their loved ones in intensive Israeli military attacks are joining the efforts, resolved to speak out rather than remain silent this time.
Wael Sabbagh, 52, is among them.
