Similar to the Gaza scenario... Occupation soldiers document their tampering with displaced people's homes in southern Lebanon

Activists circulated videos on social media platforms documenting violations by Israeli occupation army soldiers inside the homes of displaced citizens in the Marjayoun region of southern Lebanon. The scenes showed soldiers deliberately vandalizing furniture and personal belongings, in a move that reflects the continuation of the systematic destruction policy of civilian property during ongoing military operations.

Sources reported that the video clips revealed behaviors described as retaliatory, where soldiers deliberately smashed the contents of homes that were empty of their owners due to shelling and displacement. The violations did not stop at material destruction but also included mocking the personal privacy of residents, which sparked a wave of widespread condemnation across the digital space.

In one of the clips, a soldier appeared displaying personal clothes belonging to a displaced woman named 'Majda', uttering sarcastic remarks claiming she left 'souvenirs' for the invading forces. These actions brought back to mind a series of similar videos published by occupation soldiers during their incursions into the neighborhoods of the Gaza Strip, which included looting jewelry and wearing Palestinian women's clothing.

Field reports indicate that these practices are not isolated incidents but appear to be a repeated approach followed by soldiers in the areas they reach, as one of the elements clearly stated in the video: 'We like to destroy their villages.' This statement reflects the mentality with which military operations are managed in targeting the infrastructure and social fabric of border areas.

It is worth noting that the Gaza Strip has witnessed similar practices documented by the soldiers themselves since October 7, 2023, including the theft of safes and historical artifacts and the complete destruction of residential blocks. These developments in southern Lebanon confirm the expansion of violations affecting civilians and their property in the absence of strict international oversight over the conduct of the occupation army in the field.

There is something, which is that we like to destroy their villages.
