While there was a sense of defiance among the crowd, many residents were also uncertain about what comes next and the possibility of the conflict with Israel escalating into a full-scale war. Dahiya's streets were empty and shops closed, reflecting the unease in the neighborhood. Residents were eagerly waiting for news of additional Israeli airstrikes and hoping for retaliation from Hezbollah.
