From the YouTube<\/em> description of the OLJ bilingual video shared below, we can read the following, thanks to Google Translate for its assistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The war in Lebanon was brutal, terrifying and devastating. How many Lebanese have lost loved ones, killed in Israeli bombings? How many others, their house? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the midst of this misfortune, however, solidarity is sometimes born. This is what a Lebanese woman from Bekaa and living in the southern suburb of Beirut tells us in this new episode of our podcast \u201cI\u2019m telling you about Beirut\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faced with Israeli bombing, <\/em>she moved several times during the war. But during this journey, she met a family who not only welcomed her and her loved ones, but also pampered them, while their entire world was falling apart. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond prejudices and community divisions, this young woman tells us how she met this family, and how, little by little, \u201ca new friendship, full of love, was born\u201d in the midst of chaos. \u201cI think the Lebanese learned an important lesson during this war: we can only count on each other. \u00bb <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every week, we hold out our microphone to men, women and even children, coming from all regions of Lebanon or elsewhere, to find out how the war between Lebanon and Israel has turned their daily lives upside down. They tell us their experiences but also their fears and their hopes. Personal and intimate stories, to be discovered every week on all our platforms”.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
