Firefighters Accuse Israeli Forces of Deliberately Starting Wildfires in Southern Lebanon

Firefighters in Lebanon are accusing the Israeli military of starting wildfires in the south of the country. The Israeli military dropped flares in a wooded area on Tuesday, and when firefighters came to extinguish the flames, a drone struck nearby, forcing them to withdraw. According to video and testimony from emergency services in Lebanon, the Israeli military has caused fires in olive groves and on agricultural land since the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah back in June. www.democracynow.org
