People who鈥檝e had to abandon their homes because of the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah explain what life is like in Lebanon. A social worker says she believes many people now keep a bag of essential belongings packed by the front door in case they need to leave at a moment鈥檚 notice. A mother describes rearranging her daughter鈥檚 fourth birthday party because of the threat of missile strikes. Israel鈥檚 military forces are currently in southern Lebanon. They say they are there for self-defence and to target Hezbollah鈥檚 military capabilities. About a million people are estimated to have left their homes as a result. It鈥檚 not clear when, or if, they will be able to return, or whether their homes will still be standing.
