The Christian quarter in south Lebanon’s Tyre, the last pocket of the coastal city spared from Israeli threats, was emptied out on Tuesday after an unprecedented warning for the city’s residents.
“We’ve packed our things, and we’re leaving,” resident Elias Barbour told AFP.
“What have we done wrong? What are we supposed to do?” he added, saying that he would go to his sister’s home in Beirut “for a few days to see what happens”.
