Israel intensified its war on Lebanon on March 2, after Hezbollah attacked Israel for the first time in more than a year. A ceasefire in Lebanon had ostensibly been in effect since November 27, 2024, despite the United Nations and Lebanese government counting more than 15,000 Israeli ceasefire violations since then, leaving hundreds in Lebanon dead. Since then, Israel has issued mass evacuation orders for more than 14 percent of the country, including south Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut, the area known as Dahiyeh. Lebanon’s camps are home to Palestinian refugees from the 1948 Nakba and the 1967 Naksa, when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were expelled from their homeland and their villages destroyed. During Israel’s heavy attacks in 2024, he and his family fled to a friend’s apartment in Beirut, where they stayed for the two-month duration of fighting between Hezbollah and Israel. ” Officials in the Beddawi camp said that more than 250 Palestinian families have fled here from Beirut or southern Lebanon.
