Rmeish, just 2km ( 1.2 miles ) from the border, is home to 7,000 Maronite Christians .

The town is the only Lebanese town that has not been directly ordered to leave.

Israel has issued a general evacuation order for the south of Lebanon since its ground invasion began.

The UN says over 640,000 people have been displaced from the fighting.

Mayor Al-Alam says he is optimistic that the route out of town will be regularly usable again soon.

Others in the town remain anxious.

“The situation is really bad. There are no goods, no food or fuel coming through. We’re starting to see items going missing from the shelves,” says the town undertaker. “In the worst case we can just eat olives. We want to stay in our homes and so we will die in their homes if we have to”.
