Lebanon is in crisis. On Tuesday, a coordinated attack targeted members of the Lebanese militant group, Hezbollah, that were carrying electronic pagers. The attack killed 12 people and injured more than 2,800 others. On Wednesday, a similar attack was carried out via walkie-talkie radios. It’s left three people dead and more than 1,000 injured so far. Host Marco Werman speaks with Nizar Ghanem, research director at the Alternative Policy Institute in Lebanon, about how these repeated attacks have left residents feeling.
