In this emotional account, Ali Hashim, a correspondent for Al Jazeera, reflects on the devastating impact of the recent war in Lebanon.

His story centers on the destruction of his village in South Lebanon, once peaceful and filled with hope, as it became a target of Israeli airstrikes. Amid the chaos, he shares his personal struggles and the emotional burden of covering a war while witnessing the destruction of his own community.

Hashim describes the tense final hours of the conflict, the moment of ceasefire, and the bittersweet return of residents to their homes. Through his perspective, we understand the broader context of Lebanon's financial crisis, the aftermath of the Syrian revolution, and the ongoing instability in the region.

This video also sheds light on the uncertainty of Lebanon's future, as the ceasefire offers only temporary relief in a country fraught with deeper geopolitical tensions.
