According to the latest figures from the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health, the Israeli army&#039;s attacks on Lebanese territory have left more than 3,700 dead and some 15,700 wounded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upsurge in hostilities in Beirut and southern Lebanon comes amid clashes that began more than a year ago after Hezbollah attacked Israel a day after an offensive by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Last Saturday, November 23, an eight-story building in downtown Beirut was attacked in the early hours of the morning, killing dozens of people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The attacks have not stopped and places that were considered safe are no longer so: \u201cPeople are evacuating the city, the streets are congested, in many places that were considered safe, people are coming to seek shelter, but all of Lebanon is also being bombed,\u201d said Manuel Ortiz.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To stay safe and alert in the event of bombings, a system has been created to filter information that circulates through social networks, where warnings arrive a few minutes before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe tremors of the bombs are constantly being felt; people leak information about the bombings via WhatsApp, there is a person who gives a few minutes&#039; notice to evacuate a certain area, however, in many of the attacks, if not the majority, they are without warning,\u201d explained Manuel Ortiz.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to highlight the way in which people take care of each other within the community. Manuel Ortiz visited a camp in the south of the city, a camp for Palestinian refugees in a very crowded neighborhood, and from there you could hear the explosions and the ground shook from the vibration of the explosions, and although they were not directly in the neighborhood, people had already become accustomed to these events.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are deaths every day: Ortiz visited a hospital and had the opportunity to talk with the director, who told him that the hospitals are saturated and cannot accommodate more people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, Ortiz commented that the United States has a huge responsibility, since it has financed this massacre, and despite the fact that there has been talk that civilians and innocent people are not being attacked, this is a lie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey are attacking buildings where there are civilians, they are attacking neighborhoods where children are dying, where women and the elderly are dying. We have to be very attentive to what information they are selling us, because there is a huge difference between the narrative that many media outlets sell and what is happening,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You may be interested in:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/mexican-journalists-in-lebanon\/\">Bombings don&#039;t stop: Mexican journalists in Lebanon<\/a><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Los ataques de Israel a L\u00edbano no han parado, por el contrario, se intensifican ante los acuerdos por cese al fuego. \u201cTan solo hoy, martes 26 de noviembre, llevan alrededor de 35 bombas solo en Beirut\u201d, expres\u00f3 el periodista Manuel Ortiz desde L\u00edbano, durante el programa de radio Pen\u00ednsula 360 Press, con Marcos Guti\u00e9rrez, locutor [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":40,"featured_media":26716,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-26715","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-usworld"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26715"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26715\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26734,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26715\/revisions\/26734"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26716"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26715"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
