Multi-type destruction

 

- Pollution of the coast due to oil spills which causes significant risks to marine and land biodiversity.
- The deterioration of ecosystem due to the fires.
- The impact of military actions on the ecosystem, animal and plant resources.
- Emissions of dust and particles from construction sites
- Air pollution due to the fire in the Jiyeh power plant.
- Contamination of water by the leak of multi-chlorine Biphenyl from the affecter transformers.
- Contamination of soil from the Biphenyl where varying degrees of hydro-carbonated materials in the electricity power plant in Jiyeh, fuel warehouses in the Beirut airport, and in the gas stations that were demolished.
- Water pollution from fuel leakage from the affected stations, and the impact of fuel on maritime oil spills.
- Contamination of soil by contaminants from fuel combustion in the Jiyeh and Beirut International Airport.
- Damages affecting the construction sector seemed clear through the destruction of buildings and the waste left behind. The estimated size of rubble is between 2.5 to 4 million cubic meters.
- Loss of forest cover: The bombing and burning of forests and woods led to the loss of 1800 hectares of forest [tree] cover, which contributes to increasing the air pollution, as it could cause an increase the number of lands subject to desertification.
- The effects of oil spills: The "Israeli" air force poured its anger on the fuel tanks that supplied the Jiyeh power plant with energy, therefore leading to the contamination of at least 27 sites starting from the Lebanese coast northern Jiyeh. It is equivalent to 15 thousand tons of fuel oil, covering two thirds of the Lebanese coast, and forming an oil slick that reached a density 40 cm, and the wind contributed in extending the slick towards the north by 150 km to reach the Syrian coast, and went deep into the sea to reach some 30 km.
