YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMAY 12, 2026: Journalist Courtney Bonneau reports from Nabatiyeh in southern Lebanon on the forced displacement and killing of civilians, including medical workers, as well as Israel’s plans to permanently occupy southern Lebanon.
"1.2 million people are currently displaced...The evacuation orders are illegal...They're forced displacement orders under the threat of death," Bonneau said.
"They do not want the residents of south Lebanon to return to their homes."
Bonneau also discussed her work documenting the construction and expansion of illegal Israeli bases in south Lebanon.
"These are not temporary bases. They are permanent structures...The Israeli military, the Israeli politicians—they have said out loud that this is their plan, to occupy south Lebanon. And if you look at the history of attacks since 1948 on south Lebanon, all the attempts at annexation and occupation, you'll see that that is the case," Bonneau said.
