Hezbollah and Israel’s war is escalating. Four Corners travelled to Lebanon’s Hezbollah heartland and found a group determined to hit back.
In Lebanon’s Hezbollah heartland, portraits of Iranian leaders loom over the tangle of Beirut streets.
Tensions have heightened even further in the past 24 hours, after Israel's pre-emptive strikes that have left at least one person in Lebanon dead, and Hezbollah launched a barrage of rockets and drones. At Hermel, in Beka'a's north, Hezbollah politician Ihab Hamadeh told Four Corners that the drone footage proved that if the group could film sensitive sites, they could also hit them.
Israel has struck more than 7,000 targets inside Lebanon, according to data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project.
