'Everything is lost' in Lebanon rubble after ceasefire

Since the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, Lebanon is assessing the extensive damage caused by Israeli attacks. Buildings have been destroyed, leaving rubble and broken masonry in their wake. The Baalbek-Hermel region has been particularly affected, with almost a quarter of the country-wide death toll occurring there. The governor of the region estimates that 1,260 airstrikes were carried out by Israel, resulting in the deaths of 940 people. The World Bank has estimated that over 99,000 homes have been damaged, costing an estimated $2.8 billion. The Lebanese government is expected to address the issue of reconstruction, but the country's financial situation may hinder their ability to do so.
