Batoul Raad traveled to Lebanon before the situation in the Middle East broke out. Shortly after her arrival, the US and Israel attacked Iran and killed the country's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to sources. This triggered a war between Iran, the US, and Israel.
Raad was in Lebanon to visit her grandmother and relatives, as she stated, 'I was here to visit my grandmother and my relatives. ' However, Expressen reports that she went from Gothenburg to Lebanon to meet her grandfather. While she was sleeping, bombs fell, according to Expressen.
I was here to visit my grandmother and my relatives. We haven't seen each other in over eight years.
Raad described the experience, saying, 'My whole body shook when I heard the bombs. ' It is the first time she has experienced war, Expressen notes. The US has weak support for Trump's warfare, sources indicate.
SVT is on site in the war-torn border zone, where it is everyday life for them. The specific event that triggered the war remains unclear, and the current status of the war and its impact on Lebanon is unknown. The international response to the war and the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has not been detailed.
My whole body shook when I heard the bombs. I thought now I'm going to die.
