Today marks 43rd anniversary of Sabra and Shatila massacre
One of the ugliest atrocities in the post-World War II era took place in Beirut 43 years ago, when right-wing Christian militias allied with Israel entered the Sabra and Shatila Palestinian refugee camp under Israeli army protection and attacked defenceless people.
As many as 3,500 Palestinians and Lebanese civilians were killed in the massacre. Survivors have described horrific acts committed by the Israeli-backed forces, including sexual assault, mass executions and the mutilation of bodies.
Decades of efforts to bring the Israeli and Lebanese perpetrators to justice have failed to ensure meaningful accountability for the victims.
Israeli drone fires stun grenade at south Lebanon town
Lebanon’s National News Agency reports that an Israeli drone has dropped a stun grenade, targeting the village of Aita al-Shaab.
Israel has been launching near daily attacks across Lebanon in violation of a ceasefire it agreed with Hezbollah in November of last year. It often uses stun grenades in border towns as part of a campaign that locals say aims to intimidate residents and discourage displaced people against returning to their homes.
