Displaced families in Lebanon are returning home after a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, only to find their homes destroyed. Israeli airstrikes have caused extensive damage to neighborhoods in southern and eastern Lebanon, displacing nearly 1.2 million people. The World Bank estimates that housing has been the hardest hit sector, with almost 100,000 units damaged. The cost of reconstruction, estimated at $3.2 billion, remains uncertain, as Iran, which has offered to help, is under Western sanctions. Many residents are left with nothing and are starting from scratch to rebuild their lives.
