Why this is news
⚡ Ground-truth evidence ahead of media — Mainstream news headlines confirm Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon and report casualties ('9 dead', '11 people killed', 'three children'), but they lack the specific, on-the-ground details and emotional impact conveyed by the social signal, particularly the direct mention of a mother and all her children being killed in Ansar, and the condemnation from President Berri framing it as a 'war of extermination' and a violation of agreements.
