Crossing the most dangerous part of Lebanon: A difficult night at the border and the route to Tyre (videos)

A challenging night at the Lebanon-Israel border, one of the most dangerous spots on the planet right now, was documented by Protothema.gr’s war correspondent, Marinos Aleiferis. The camera followed him this morning on his route to Tyre, with Beirut as the final destination.

He spent a difficult night in the village of Rmeis, a Christian village near the border. The shelling was continuous, as captured by the camera and described by Marinos Aleiferis, who was in southern Lebanon just 700 meters from the Israeli border, reporting on developments on the 21st day of the war.

The Israelis there are attacking with tanks and air bombardments, while Hezbollah is trying to withstand the pressure. The sound of torrential rain mixes with the explosions, and the war rages relentlessly, with the death toll in Lebanon having surpassed 1,000.

Inside the “Red Zone”

At 6 a.m., the morning light finds the Protothema correspondent beginning a difficult return journey.

The route toward Tyre is extremely dangerous: the city lies south of the Zahrani River and in the heart of the red zone, where Israeli attacks do not cease.

Along the way, military checkpoints are scattered, and we see destroyed gas stations. As the area is under evacuation, very few cars are on the road, and the streets are almost empty.

A similar scene in Tyre: The city is empty, lifeless, resembling a ghost town. Streets that once bustled with residents are now silent.

Next stop: Beirut.
