From The Times and the Sunday Times, this is the story.

I'm Manvina.

While all eyes have been on the US and Israel's war with Iran,

there's relatively little coverage of the second front of the war in the Middle East.

We were in Thir and driving around, looking at the destruction and speaking to people who'd

experienced it. Then we met the sky called Abu Jaffir.

That's Louise Callaghan, foreign correspondent at the Sunday Times, who's been reporting from Lebanon

where people like Abu Jafar have been caught in the crossfire

between Israel and Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed Shia militia. She's been hearing graphic stories,

which some listeners may find shocking. He lives a few doors down from this area where a lot of electricity generators were being stored.

And a week or so ago that was hit by the Israeli bombardment.

And the explosion that it caused, I mean, it's just absolutely enormous.

Heard we're all right.

It's all right.

He showed us around this site. I mean, it's this huge area which is completely destroyed. It was still smoking, twisted metal lying everywhere. You could see the kind of remains of the generators and people were picking through the rubble trying to find some of their belongings.

He told us that a few days earlier when the strike happened that he was at home with his family eating ifhtar, which is the meal to break your fast during Ramadan.

People were preparing to sit down and eat.

And then he saw this huge explosion just down the street.

He saw this fire shoot up.

And he ran out to try and see what happened.

Do you know?

You know, people who say, me, no.
