"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. "

Is Israel imposing a blockade on Lebanon? - MEE

Hundreds of people initially attempting to escape Lebanon by car are now being forced to make their way by foot, according to the UN.

Lebanon’s Transport Minister Ali Hamieh told Al Jazeera that Israel was imposing an “unannounced siege” on Lebanon, particularly on land and in the air.

The attack comes a day after the Israeli army had claimed the crossing was being used by Hezbollah to smuggle weapons.

Israel previously also threatened to “not allow hostile aircraft carrying weapons to land at the civilian airport in Beirut”, which some had perceived as a threat against the only operational commercial air terminal in Lebanon.
