Fleeing Israeli Bombs, the Displaced in Lebanon Search for Safety
Briefly

"At dusk, the parking lot of Tripoli's Quality Inn is packed with cars and families milling about. The Quality Inn has been transformed into one of the biggest shelters in Tripoli for displaced Lebanese fleeing Israeli bombing in the country's south."
"I am with my whole family, and we just want this war to end so we can go home," said Hassan al-Aaker, expressing a sense of optimism amidst the chaos as he reflects on the uncertainty of his house's fate.
"In Beirut, the displaced are practically everywhere. They have set up makeshift tents on the corniche by the sea, crafting shelters out of stray metal poles, bits of awnings and blankets."
"Some families have placed floor coverings on the ground, anchoring them with cases of water and folded blankets, and others are taking shelter anywhere that they can, mostly in schools but also in unfinished buildings."
