Families in southern Lebanon’s Zawtar al-Gharbieh are cautiously returning home under a new Israeli-backed “pilot zone” deal meant to ease tensions by pulling back troops and prompting Hezbollah to disarm—but the reality is devastating: homes are rubble, lives are shattered, and safety remains elusive. Mahasen Faqih, 58, treasures her damaged home as her “small homeland,” salvaging decades of memories while struggling to afford repairs after selling $20,000 in jewelry last time. Israeli forces still control 270 square miles of southern Lebanon, drones hover overhead, and locals remain wary. Though talks in Rome may expand these zones, for now, rebuilding and peace feel like distant dreams.
