A picture taken on Oct. 22, 2024, shows a view of the yard of a winery that was partially hit in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a neighbourhood in Rayak town in the Bekaa plain.

The moment Israel's strikes on Lebanon's Bekaa Valley cease, Roland Abou-Khater straps a white flag to his truck, watches the sky for warplanes then whisks a harvesting team to near the firing line.
