SHOTLIST: SIDON, LEBANON (JUNE 19, 2026) 1. VARIOUS OF HEAVY TRAFFIC IN SIDON AS RESIDENTS FLEE SOUTHERN LEBANON SIDON, LEBANON - JUNE 19: Residents continued to flee southern Lebanon toward the country's northern regions as Israeli attacks persisted despite the recently announced U.S.-Iran agreement that also includes Lebanon. Heavy traffic was seen on the coastal highway in the city of Sidon, where long lines of vehicles formed as families left areas affected by the fighting. Many residents were seeking safer locations amid concerns over continued attacks in southern parts of the country. The strikes marked the deadliest escalation since the signing of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding by U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Wednesday. The agreement aims to support negotiations intended to end hostilities involving the United States, Israel and Iran, including attacks affecting Lebanon. Under the memorandum, Washington and Tehran are expected to hold negotiations for 60 days, with the possibility of an extension, in an effort to reach a final agreement on Iran's nuclear program and international sanctions. According to official Lebanese figures, Israel's military campaign in Lebanon since March 2 has killed 3,912 people, injured 11,873 others and displaced more than one million residents.
