Prayers for peace in Lebanon as Israeli strikes against Hezbollah continue.

Residents in southern Lebanon and the Bekaa Valley are fleeing amidst the ongoing military bombardment.

In his Sunday homily, Maronite Patriarch Cardinal Bechara Rai expressed sorrow over the devastating loss of life.

The cardinal is calling on the United Nations Security Council to intervene and put an end to the ongoing conflict, describing the attacks as “unprecedented and devoid of humanity.”

More than 270 Lebanese have been killed in the barrage, marking the deadliest attacks since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.
