South Lebanon's Christian Towns Insist They Are Not Part of Israel ...

Christian towns in South Lebanon reject involvement in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict despite civilian casualties, including three killed in an Israeli drone strike, officials said.

  • In the southern Lebanese village of Ain Ebel, a drone strike last week killed a 22-year-old resident repairing an internet connection, according to local reports.
  • Residents in southern Christian towns refuse to evacuate, fearing their homes will be used for Hezbollah military operations and that abandoning land will turn them into refugees.
  • During a prayer service, Suad Jallad was comforted by the Apostolic Nuncio to Lebanon, who is touring Christian towns; she wept, 'Bury me next to my son.'
  • Denying involvement in the conflict, local leaders in Ain Ebel state, "We did not choose this war, nor do we want it, but we chose to stay."
  • Describing a life lived constantly under the shadow of conflict, a mother in Rmeish noted, "Since I was little, the town has been bombed... There has always been war.
