More than one million people have been displaced in Lebanon as the US-Israel war with Iran continues to impact the wider region.
This comes after Israel issued orders to evacuate large parts of the south. Israel stepped up its campaign against Iran-backed armed group Hezbollah in Lebanon after rockets were fired into northern Israel earlier this month. Hezbollah has continued to fire rockets at Israel since then.
With shelters full, many families are sleeping in their cars or in makeshift tents in open areas during extreme weather conditions. These also include children and pregnant women.
Most of the families came from areas where Hezbollah enjoys significant support, including Beirut’s southern suburbs, known as Dahieh.
A child told the BBC he felt “ashamed” of sleeping on the streets after his family were forced to leave their home in Beirut.
The BBC’s Middle East correspondent, Hugo Bachega, spoke to some of the hundreds of displaced families about the reality of living in Lebanon amid the conflict.
