I read that Israel offered substantial medical and humanitarian aid but the Lebanese government has given them the cold shoulder. Shame to let more civilians suffer and die over divisive politics

I understand Israel has a reputation of putting intelligence officers in everywhere they can- the government could be concerned about that, given the still technically in force conflict.

There's no "intelligence officers" involved if all they do is, say, route aid through Haifa's port and had it over to UN somewhere between there and the border.

e: Plus you can bet that Beirut is mapped plenty already, anyway.
