Israeli Airstrike on Kfar Tebnit Displaces Dozens of Families, Causes Extensive Damage


Kfar tebnit: An Israeli airstrike on the town of Kfar Tebnit in the Nabatieh district displaced more than 60 families after parts of their homes were destroyed and others sustained severe damage.



According to National News Agency – Lebanon,the attack has triggered a renewed social crisis, with no official response so far beyond damage assessments conducted by committees from the Council of the South and the provision of limited emergency assistance, pending compensation.



The strike partially destroyed 33 apartments, rendering them uninhabitable, and completely destroyed three others. More than 30 homes and commercial shops suffered damage, including shattered windows. Most of the affected homeowners are members of the Lebanese Army who had purchased their apartments through housing loans.



Overnight, social media campaigns called on residents to open vacant apartments or homes to shelter displaced families. Community initiatives emerged as a temporary solution, alongside appeals urging the government and relevant ministries to intervene.



Kfar Tebnit municipality issued a humanitarian appeal urging residents with available housing to assist displaced families. Meanwhile, Council of the South teams carried out field assessments in Kfar Tebnit and Ain Qana, where a two-story building with four shops was destroyed and around 100 housing units damaged.
