Israel has been accused of destroying entire villages in southern Lebanon by rigging homes with explosives and detonating them, according to reports during the ongoing conflict. The Israeli military claims the demolitions target Hezbollah infrastructure allegedly embedded within civilian areas. However, rights groups have raised serious concerns, warning such large-scale destruction of homes may violate international law and amount to war crimes. The devastation has displaced thousands of civilians, with residents describing widespread loss of homes, livelihoods, and community life. The escalation has intensified tensions in the region, raising fears of a prolonged humanitarian crisis and further instability. (PC: NDTV)
