Public Squares of Lebanon's Capital is Full of Displaced People

The footpaths and public squares of Lebanon's capital, Beirut, have been filled with desperate families fleeing Israel's bombing and invasion.

Aid groups say they cannot help most of the people who've been forced from their homes. The area where Beirut residents come to have fun, relax and enjoy the view of the waterfront is now filled with tents that are home to displaced people. 

Although Israel says it’s been targeting Hezbollah facilities and leaders, the impact is widespread. Dozens of villages have been ordered to leave and many of these people here have come from the southern suburbs of Beirut. According to the Lebanese Government, there are 1.2 million displaced Lebanese.
