The Israeli air force continues its strikes in Lebanon on Saturday October 5. The successor of Hassan Nasrallah, the former leader of Hezbollah, has reportedly been killed.
Thick cloud smoke rises into the sky near Tir, in southern Lebanon, Saturday October 5. Most of the inhabitants fled the South to go to the North, like the Syrian refugees met by France Télévisions. “There are five of us, and we chose this place because it’s the safest“, confides Mohammad Ammar. In the evening, the IDF launched a new call to residents in southern Beirut (Lebanon) to evacuate.
An Israeli attack could have killed, in the night from Thursday to Friday, Hashem Safieddine, expected to succeed Hassan Nasrallah at the head of Hezbollah. The Shiite movement, which continues to launch rockets at Israel, says it has been unreachable since Friday. Clashes continue unabated as Israel prepares to commemorate the October 7 terrorist attacks. Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed on Saturday evening that he would respond to Iran’s attack.
