00:00
These Lebanese civilians have escaped their villages in the south, which have turned into war zones.
00:07
A combat area between the Israeli army and armed group Hezbollah.
00:12
With intense bombings from Israel, which have destroyed many homes, perhaps even some of theirs.
00:19
For now, this school in Sedan is their shelter.
00:24
They have survived, but living all together in classrooms is difficult.
00:30
We were displaced against our will, and the situation here is not great.
00:35
We call on the officials and those responsible to check on us.
00:39
None of them have come.
00:41
We hope that the political parties and the authorities in the area here will visit and see how people are living, see what they need.
00:50
This is no way to live. Two or three families are living in each classroom. Is this a life?
00:56
If the children want to shower, we have to wait until we manage to find a shop where we can bathe them.
01:01
UNICEF acknowledges that conditions are tough.
01:05
It says it is trying to bring in more sanitary facilities to lessen their hardships.
01:12
More than 1.2 million Lebanese have been displaced, 400,000 killed by this war that Lebanon has not asked for.
01:21
These are people that left their homes with almost nothing.
01:26
There is also concern for their own security.
01:29
The Sedan area, where they have found refuge, has also been struck recently.
01:34
Israel is saying it has hit Hezbollah forces.
01:37
With Israeli calls for new evacuations, and with Hezbollah firing rockets on Israel, the war could further expand.
