What are you waiting for? The chance for good luck is fleeting! Hurry up and follow me and start a lucky journey together! I wish you good fortune and all your wishes come true!

As night fell, Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, an ancient and vibrant city that should have enjoyed a moment of tranquility in the night, broke the silence of the night late at night on October 2 with several deafening explosions, and the flames and smoke were billowing out, illuminating the night sky of Beirut particularly harshly

According to eyewitnesses, the explosion came from Dahiyeh, a southern suburb of Beirut, an area where Allah is strong, and when the explosion occurred, a huge fireball rose into the air, accompanied by a deafening loud bang, the shock wave swept in, the surrounding buildings shook violently, the window glass was shattered, and people fled their homes in panic

Just 40 minutes later, explosions were heard in the Bashura neighborhood in the center of Beirut, which is one of the city's busiest neighborhoods, with its high-rise buildings and shops, and many citizens were resting at home when the explosion took them by surprise from the sudden disaster

In the aftermath of the explosion, buildings in the Bashura neighborhood caught fire and smoke, the streets were littered with broken glass and building debris, panicked people ran through the smoke and firelight to find safe shelters, ambulances and fire engine sirens sounded in the night sky, and rescuers searched for survivors in the rubble

The Israel military later issued a statement claiming that it had carried out precision strikes on downtown Beirut, targeting Allah's infrastructure and military targets, and Israel said the attack was in response to Allah's previous attacks on Israel targets and would continue to take all necessary measures to protect Israel's security

The Lebanon Government strongly condemned Israel's assertions, calling the Israel attack a "barbaric act of aggression" and a grave violation of Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity, Lebanon the Government said that the Israel attack had resulted in a large number of civilian casualties, and called on the international community to condemn the Israel's actions

UN Secretary-General António Guterres issued a statement condemning the bombing and calling on all parties concerned to exercise restraint and avoid further escalation of the situation

A number of countries also condemned the bombing and expressed their condolences to the Government and people of Lebanon, and some called on Israel to cease its attacks on Lebanon and to resolve the dispute through dialogue

Israel has turned a deaf ear to the call of the international community and said that it will continue to strike at Allah targets until Allah ceases its threats against Israel, and Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel will not allow any country or organization to use its territory as a base for attacking Israel and will take all necessary measures to protect the safety of Israel citizens

The Beirut bombings have once again brought tensions to a high point in the Middle East, with a long history of conflict between Israel and Lebanon, with many wars and clashes between the two sides, and in recent years, tensions between Israel and Lebanon's Allah Party have intensified as the civil war in Syria continues

Israel accused the Allah Party of taking advantage of the Syria civil war to continuously strengthen its military presence in southern Lebanon and posing a serious threat to the Israel, Israel repeatedly launching air strikes against Allah targets in Syria and warning the Allah Party not to cross the red line

Allah, on the other hand, said that Israel's air strikes on Syria were a violation of Syria's sovereignty and that it would take all necessary measures to safeguard the security of Syria and Lebanon, and Allah leader Nasrallah repeatedly warned Israel that if Israel continued to launch attacks on Syria, Allah would retaliate against Israel

Against this background, the Beirut bombing incident has undoubtedly added fuel to the conflict between Israel and Allah, and the mutual accusations and threats between Israel and Allah have made the situation in the Middle East more confusing and the future direction full of uncertainties

The smoke of the explosion had not yet cleared, and an atmosphere of fear enveloped the whole of Beirut, and the hearts of the people were heavy, as if a boulder was pressing down and breathless, and those streets that were once familiar were now devastated, and the once bustling street markets were now silent, with only the occasional siren sounding to remind people that the city had just experienced a catastrophe

Rescuers are nervously searching for survivors in front of a residential building in the Bashura neighborhood, half destroyed in the blast, and home to families fleeing southern Lebanon who had hoped to find a safe haven in Beirut but had been caught in the flames of war again

Rescuers carefully removed the cement slabs, hoping to find signs of life in the rubble, when suddenly, a rescuer shouted in surprise: "There are people here!" When they heard the noise, they rushed to see a young mother buried in the rubble, holding a baby tightly, the baby's cry was weak, but full of desire to survive

Rescuers immediately launched a rescue, and after several hours of hard work, finally rescued the mother and son from the rubble, the mother's face was covered with blood, but she didn't care, just hugged the baby in her arms tightly, her eyes full of tears

This scene deeply touched the hearts of everyone present, and the cruelty of war and the fragility of life were most truly reflected at this moment

The Beirut bombing incident has not only brought great pain to the Lebanon people, but has also attracted widespread attention from the international community, and many countries and international organizations have expressed their condolences to Lebanon and provided humanitarian assistance

For the Lebanon people, the immediate predicament remains acute, with incalculable casualties and losses caused by the explosions, thousands of people left homeless, infrastructure severely damaged and economic and social development severely damaged

More worryingly, the bombings could trigger a new round of conflict, and relations between Israel and Allah have been tense, and the bombings have undoubtedly exacerbated tensions between the two sides

The international community has called on Israel and Allah to exercise restraint and avoid further escalation, and neither side appears to show no signs of backing down, with Israel saying it will continue to strike at Allah targets, while Allah has vowed to retaliate

Against this backdrop, the future of Lebanon is uncertain, and it remains unclear whether the war-torn country will be able to emerge from the disaster and rebuild its homeland

The Lebanon people, who yearn for peace, but whose path to peace is fraught with thorns, hope that the international community will play a more active role in promoting the settlement of disputes between Israel and Allah through dialogue and bringing true peace to Lebanon

In today's world, peace and development are still the main themes of the times, regional conflicts, terrorism, extremism and other problems still plague all parts of the world, and the road to peace still has a long way to go

We should deeply reflect on the fact that war brings only disasters and suffering, and that only through dialogue and cooperation can we achieve common security and build a community with a shared future for mankind

Beirut, an ancient and beautiful city that was once the cultural and commercial center of the Middle East, is now devastated, and we believe that the Lebanon people have the confidence and ability to overcome the difficulties in front of them, rebuild their homeland, and restore Beirut, the "Paris of the Middle East", to its former glory

We also hope that the international community will lend a helping hand to help the Lebanon people tide over the difficulties and achieve peace and stability at an early date
