Lebanese expats terrified' for families after Israel says ceasefire doesn't apply
"Sara Roddis, from Coventry, has been ill with stress. Most of her immediate family is in the south of Lebanon, which has been regularly targeted by Israel. Since hostilities broke out between Israel and Lebanon last month, she has been absolutely terrified that one of her loved ones will die."
"Donald Trump announced late on Tuesday that the US and Iran had agreed to a two-week ceasefire. But while Israel suspended attacks on Iran, it launched its largest strikes yet in Lebanon on Wednesday, which has caused hundreds of casualties, according to its health minister."
"Although saddened, Ms Roddis said she was not surprised. There's just no mercy, there's no looking at civilians, and the situation remains critical for those in conflict zones."
