Thousands of civilians try to flee Lebanon after bombardment sparks bloodbath
A barrage of bombings has caused a bloodbath in Lebanon as scenes of panic unfold across the country with thousands of civilians to try to her give up.
People across the country are fleeing their homes after receiving automated calls and texts urging them to evacuate. Images are being captured of families taking their belongings, piling them into or on top of their vehicles and trying to escape the scene of war.
Lebanon has suspended classes at universities and schools, with many campuses being used as shelters for those seeking refuge.
The health care system is under pressure as it continues to deal with injuries from last week’s buzzer and communicator blasts.
