This is haunting. Lebanese cellist Mahdi Saheli playing Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian's Andantino in the ruins of southern Beirut after Israeli bombings. 💔 #Lebanon #Beirut #Israel

The Croisière Jaune was a 13,000-kilometre automotive expedition crossing Asia from Beyrouth (Beirut) to Pékin (Beijing), advertising the reliability of Citroën's rubber-tracked mechanical design in extreme terrain such as deserts and mountains. #Photography #EllaMaillart #Citroen #Beirut #Beijing

Citroën Kégresse half-tracks (Type P17 model) used during the 1931–1932 Croisière Jaune (Yellow Expedition) across Asia. The registration plate vehicle of the vehicle in the foreground is 942-WI.

This expedition was designed to demonstrate the capability of Citroën's vehicles in extreme terrain, such as deserts and mountains.

The large cylinder mounted to the front of the vehicles is an unditching roller, designed to help the cars climb over obstacles or prevent digging into soft ground.

Lebanese health minister in presser says death toll now 394, inc. 83 children & 42 women. Said “numbers talk, these are families,” says 4 hospitals ceased operating. switched to English to add “medical teams & ambulances are under direct attacks. This is unacceptable” #lebanon #beirut

#Israel’i air strikes just flattened these residential apartment blocks in #Beirut. You can hear shocked screams of people in the street below as the missiles hit & the buildings collapse in just seconds. This is the daily reality of life in #Lebanon’s capital now.

Hoy he visitado varias zonas de #Beirut, algunas, muy castigadas por los bombardeos israelíes. En otras, como en el barrio cristiano de Achrafieh, se adornan los lujosos centros comerciales como si no pasara nada. Mirad el vídeo hasta el final.

The Road from Beirut to Damascus. Palm trees, a horse-drawn car in the road, vegetation in the surrounding plain.

📹Entramos en Dahiye, en los barrios más bombardeados de #Beirut. Casi en cada rincón, en cada esquina, hay señales de destrucción. Las bombas israelíes han arrasado calles y edificios. Pocos confían aquí en el frágil acuerdo de paz que se alcanzó hace una semana.

A view on #Beirut, from Amchit. Beirut used to be known as the Paris of the Middle-East, and is still famous for its ancient history, its theaters, its museums, its pubs and parties... #sunset #photography #sea #mediterranean #landscape #horizon #phoenicians #sky #spring #music #livelovelebanon

Israel’s defense minister Katz announces ground invasion of sth #Lebanon. Says residents won’t return to area south of Litani River suggesting intent to hold or otherwise control area. Last time Israel invaded & occupied south of the river in 1982, Hezbollah was born in response. #Beirut

A massive, unrelenting, set of IDF missile attacks on the Southern suburbs of #Beirut, multiple large high rise buildings hit and reduced to rubble, shaking the entire city like a swarm of very strong earthquakes. #Lebanon 🇱🇧 🧵
