"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Intense Israeli Shelling and Airstrikes Target Southern Lebanon and Beirut Suburbs - This is Beirut

Intense Israeli shelling and airstrikes continued on Sunday, particularly on the southern suburbs of Beirut and various towns in southern Lebanon, leading to casualties and widespread destruction.

An Israeli drone struck a motorcycle in Jdeidet Marjayoun, southern Lebanon, killing the driver instantly and injuring a lady who was passing by. As the second individual on the motorcycle attempted to flee into a nearby building, local youth gathered to assist the injured.

However, a subsequent drone strike resulted in the death of the motorcyclist and injuries to an Internal Security Forces officer and another civilian, both of whom were transferred to a hospital in Nabatiyeh. A third victim from the town of Debbin, whose identity remains unknown, was also reported dead.

Israeli artillery shelled several towns in southern Lebanon, including Mays al-Jabal, Braashit, Aitaroun, Beit Yahoun, Adchit, Shaqra, Arnoun, Majdal Selm, and Qabrikha.

The Israelis demolished a mosque in the town of Yaroun. A video circulated showing the mosque's complete destruction. Israeli forces have reportedly entered the outskirts of the town but have not advanced further.

Airstrikes targeted the area between Debbin and Marjayoun, leading to injuries.

Wreckage from an Israeli drone was discovered between the outskirts of Yanta and Madoukha in the Rashaya District, prompting army intelligence and security agencies to cordon off the area for investigation.

In the Marjayoun district, artillery shelling persisted in Kfar Kila and the outskirts of Bourj al-Molouk, while reconnaissance drones surveyed the region.
