Description
"My children are here, their schools are here, and we're not going anywhere. We feel like our soul has returned". As tens of thousands of Lebanese displaced by the war between Israel and Hezbollah head back home, residents from Zibqin and Qana return to their devastated towns as a ceasefire. "Coming back? That's the toughest part. To see the scenes we're seeing now. I don't know how we'll get used to living without those we were so close to", says Malak Qleit from Qana. "We're not going anywhere. We're staying here. I'm going to fix it up. I'm going to clean up and stay here", says Umm Mohammed Bzeih as she inspects her damaged house in Zibqin. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES
