454,000 displaced: Thousands sleep rough in Beirut as strike shelters overwhelmed
As Israeli strikes continue in southern Lebanon, for many people there is nowhere left to go. Some are sleeping in cars, on the streets or on the beach.

Our reporter Catherine Norris Trent sent this report from Beirut.
