Woke up to hear devestating news. Israeli warplanes shattered bridges linking the north with Beirut.
Fidar Bridge in Jbeil (Byblos)
The Casino Bridge and Ghazir Bridge in Jounieh-Maameltein
Madfoun Bridge in Batroun
Five people died and many are wounded. A 23-year old guy, whom my family knows, died as he was driving back home from his work in Beirut.
As a result of the shelling, empty fields in Adma burned. Of course, that's only a fraction of the shelling that's going on around in the country.
I called home. There is fear to travel long distances now. And when civilians rush to the banks for money, they're not allowed to retrieve dollars, just liras. You can't even retrieve 1,000 dollars now.
Everyday brings in something new, yet another twist to the bloody plot. And the question in my head is why are the Israeli warplanes going to "non-combat" areas? Why are they further isolating the Lebanese from each other and from the outside world? The Lebanese people do not deserve all that, they don't.
"Nobody knows how many rebellions, besides political rebellions, ferment in the masses of life which people earth."
