Israeli airstrikes have intensified in Lebanon, particularly targeting the southern suburbs of Beirut. As the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah escalates, the Lebanese health care system has been left shattered, according to officials. Israel has also ordered residents to evacuate the area near Tripoli, a northern Lebanese city.
