"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. "

Massive wave of Israeli airstrikes hits Lebanon following Hezbollah retaliation - The Cradle

The Israeli army carried out dozens of airstrikes on Lebanon on 22 September, following Hezbollah’s operations targeting a major airbase and military-industrial complex near the city of Haifa that morning.

“Fighter jets, under the direction of the Amman and the Northern Command, attacked dozens of targets, including launchers and military structures of the terrorist organization Hezbollah, in several areas in southern Lebanon this morning,” the Israeli air force said via X on Sunday morning, releasing footage of attacks. 

An Israeli army spokesman said jets attacked “launchers and military structures” belonging to Hezbollah during the night. 

Israel also attacked a number of areas in eastern Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, according to Al Manar’s correspondent. 

The strikes targeted areas between the towns of Al-Maaliya and Al-Malikiya, Zebqin towards Sheheen, Wadi Hassan on the outskirts of Majdal Zun, and the outskirts of the town of Yater, Al Manar said. 

The towns of Taybeh, Aitaroun, Markaba, Khiam, Aita al-Shaab, Kfarmelki, Al-Khardali, Ain Qana, Al-Mahmoudiya, Hama Zalaya, Al-Zahrani, Labaya, Al-Dimashqiyeh, and several other areas. 

The outskirts of the town of Talousa, areas between the towns of Zrarieh and Ansar, areas near the Tasa-Luwaizeh spring, the outskirts of Froun, Al-Rihan Heights, and the towns of Rabb al-Thalathin, Yaroun, and Adaisseh were all bombarded.

“Enemy warplanes carried out a wide-scale aerial aggression, since the early hours of dawn until 8:30 this morning, launching a series of raids targeting border towns and forested and open areas in the south of Lebanon and western Bekaa,” Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reported earlier on 22 September.
