Teaching at Zawtar al-Gharbiya school metres from the Israeli army!

Lebanon ·

A classroom in the Imam Musa al-Sadr official school in Zawtar al-Gharbiya has no glass, and a wall is partly destroyed by gunfire and shrapnel, while ten pupils follow Arabic lessons amid drone noise, explosions and gunfire sweeps. The town is one of the pilot areas under a framework agreement reached by Lebanese and Israeli sides in direct talks under US sponsorship.

South Lebanon has been the main front of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah for years, and Israeli forces have repeatedly operated in border villages during that conflict.
