"The Word 'Ceasefire' Has Lost Its Meaning": Lylla Younes on Israel's Ethnic Cleansing of South Lebanon
Israel is continuing to carry out attacks on Lebanon amid ongoing talks between the U.S. and Iran to end the war. Iran is maintaining its demand that Lebanon be included in a ceasefire deal. Lylla Younes, an investigative journalist based in Beirut, says President Trump's claims that he wants peace with Iran are "absurd" because the United States continues to support "Israel's aggression in southern Lebanon." She argues that "an angry phone call between Netanyahu and Donald Trump is ultimately meaningless" as long as Israel is granted "impunity and arms." Younes also talks about reporting she did for Drop Site News on the ethnic cleansing in Ain Arab, a village in southern Lebanon.

Israel's Destruction of Southern Lebanon Turns Villages into "Moonscapes": Reporter Lylla Younes
The Israeli military issued new evacuation orders in southern Lebanon on Wednesday, warning residents of 12 towns and villages, including some north of the Litani River — beyond its current zone of occupation — to leave their homes. Those warnings were followed by reports of airstrikes in the south.

Israel and Hezbollah agreed to a fragile temporary ceasefire in mid-April that has since been extended, but fighting has continued at a lesser scale. More than 1 million Lebanese, nearly one-fifth of Lebanon's population, have been displaced.

"So this is dozens of villages that now no one can technically access. They're calling it a 'forward defensive zone,'" says Lylla Younes, an investigative journalist based in Beirut. "There's nothing defensive about it. It's an offensive operation, and they're using the word 'cleanse' to describe what they're doing there. They're just bulldozing homes."
