Episode description

When Hezbollah’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in Beirut over the weekend, Michelle Jasmin Dimasi felt the blast from her apartment. 

Michelle’s an Australian journalist and she’s been based in the city for a few months.

Now, as Israeli airstrikes continue, she is preparing to leave, likely by plane. 

But for a million displaced people within Lebanon, that calculation of where to go, and how to get out, is much more complicated.

Today, Michelle Jasmin Dimasi on the reality of life in Lebanon right now and why thousands of people, including Syrian refugees, are fleeing back into Syria.
