In southern Lebanon, civil defense workers say they have recovered the bodies of 23 people killed by Israel’s bombardment last year. The gruesome discoveries came amid Israel’s partial withdrawal from southern Lebanon and continued attacks in the region, where residents are returning to frontline villages to find their homes shattered and entire neighborhoods leveled. This is Suhaila Daher, who returned to her village of Kfar Kila on Tuesday.

Suhaila Daher: “Of course, our feeling is mixed with joy and sadness. There are still martyrs that haven’t been retrieved. All the destruction can be compensated, thank God, but the martyrs won’t return.”
