The Emptying of Baalbek Is a Moment to Take Stock
“Large numbers of people continue to flee their homes every day, as Israel’s military operations in Lebanon have been going on unabated.” These disturbing words could be from almost any news report about Israel’s invasion of its northern neighbour over the past month. However, they can be found in a report by the Norwegian Refugee Council’s Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre issued on July 27, 2006.

A Future Without Hezbollah
At the end of September, when Israel’s campaign to destroy Hezbollah was reaching its height, I met one of the group’s supporters in a seaside café in western Beirut. He was a middle-aged man with a thin white beard and the spent look of someone who had not slept for days. He was an academic of sorts, not a fighter, but his ties to Hezbollah were deep and long-standing.

Did the UAE Expel Hariri?
The media affairs advisor at the office of former Prime Minister Saad Hariri, Hussein Al-Wajeh responded to Al Akhbar’s article titled "UAE Expels Hariri" published today.
Al-Wajeh wrote on "X" platform: "While children in Gaza are being slaughtered, some spend their time inventing lies and fabricating dreams."
Earlier today, Al-Akhbar reported that the authorities of the United Arab Emirates asked the former Prime Minister Saad Hariri to leave its territory "at the request of Saudi Arabia, without knowing the reasons, nor an explanation for the timing".
The newspaper also reported that Hariri recently visited Turkey and met with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, with whom he has a good relationship. It is known that Erdogan offered Hariri a place to stay if he decided to reside in Turkey.
News had spread about Hariri laying off 70 employees from his media team and his advisors and selling the Future Movement headquarters in the Spears area in Beirut.
It was also reported that an entrepreneur bought Hariri convoy cars for the benefit of a third party.
