UK citizens advised to evacuate from Lebanon as soon as possible.

There is a lot of tension and fear in Lebanon right now. The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah is escalating, and British nationals have been advised to leave the country while they still can. Just today, Israeli jets flew over Beirut and caused sonic booms, while Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah gave a speech warning of retaliation against Israel. This comes after the recent detonation of pagers and hand-held radios, which resulted in the death of 37 people and injured 3,000 more.

In response to the growing tensions, Foreign Secretary David Lammy expressed deep concern and urged British citizens to leave Lebanon as soon as possible. He emphasized that the situation could deteriorate rapidly, and it would be best for everyone to leave while there are still commercial options available. The Foreign Office has also advised against all travel to Lebanon at this time.

The situation in Lebanon is increasingly chaotic and dangerous. Israeli warplanes have been flying low and breaking the sound barrier, causing panic among the people. Nasrallah's speech, which was being broadcasted across the country, was interrupted by these sonic booms. Sky News even mistook the blasts for something else, highlighting the confusion and fear felt by the people.

Israel has claimed responsibility for the explosions targeting Hezbollah operatives, stating that they were striking their targets in Lebanon. Defence Minister Yoav Gallant even called the attacks "very impressive" and warned that this was just the beginning of a new phase in the war. He emphasized the need for courage, determination, and perseverance in the face of this conflict.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah has accused Israel of crossing a red line with their attacks, pointing out that many of the explosions have taken place in civilian areas. Nasrallah expressed concern for the safety of the people, as many of the targeted locations were hospitals, pharmacies, and homes where civilians were present.

There are growing fears that the situation will only continue to worsen. Both Israel and Hezbollah seem determined to continue their actions, with Israel warning that they could ramp up their military operations against Hezbollah. This comes after Hezbollah launched a rocket campaign in support of their allies, Hamas, in Gaza.

The UK and other Western countries have called for restraint and urged for a peaceful resolution to this conflict. But as the tension rises and violence ensues, it remains to be seen how this situation will unfold. For now, it is imperative for British nationals to heed the advice and leave Lebanon while there is still a chance. Stay tuned for more updates on this ongoing crisis.
