Nepali workers working in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, have been living in derricks for a week. After Israel began to focus its attacks on Beirut itself, the Nepalis are starting to panic. Israel launched a series of attacks in the center of Beirut on Saturday night. Israel claims that it is targeting Hezbollah's infrastructure and weapons depots.
"Saturday night was even more terrifying than Friday." Loud explosions were heard. Flames could be seen in the sky," said Saru Gurung of Kaski, who works in Beirut. "It was the most terrifying sound ever."
Since Israel launched its attack on Lebanon, 1400 people have died. More than one lakh have been displaced. Last Monday, Israel entered the land of Lebanon and launched an attack. Last Tuesday, Israel attacked Beirut after 18 years. A series of aerial attacks were also carried out on Saturday night. The death toll in the latest attack is not clear.
Gurung said that the recent situation in Beirut is becoming more dangerous. Around one thousand Nepalis are working in Beirut. The environment here is becoming dangerous day by day. It has forced me to think whether to stay here or move," she said. "The moment the explosion happened here at night, it seems like today is the last day." "There are reports that Israel does not attack randomly here, it only attacks places where Hezbollah fighters are," she said. If that is true, ordinary people like us will not affect others. If the country of Lebanon is targeted, then we will not stay. There is a situation of having to return home immediately.'
