Can Lebanon Be a Hub for Syria’s Reconstruction?
Nearly a year after the end of Syria’s civil war and the fall of the Assad dictatorship, the country has embarked on a long and complex reconstruction process. The destruction is staggering: entire neighborhoods lie in rubble and basic infrastructure (roads, power grids, and water systems) has collapsed, and public institutions are dysfunctional. Millions of Syrians remain displaced inside and outside the country, schools and hospitals are incapacitated, and what remains of the economy is crippled by unemployment, inflation, and the lingering impact of sanctions (even as many have lately been eased). Ongoing sectarian violence and a deepening humanitarian disaster, with more than 14.5 million Syrians facing food insecurity, compound the crisis. As the international community re-engages in Syria, reconstruction will require many hundreds of billions of dollars in aid and investment as well as assistance to restore governance, security, and stability.

Don't Miss the Partial Solar Eclipse Today, the Last One of 2022
The moon will pass in front of the sun today for the last solar eclipse of 2022.
On Tuesday (Oct.25), the moon will pass in front of the sun causing a partial solar eclipse, the last solar eclipse of 2022.
This year's second and final solar eclipse will only be visible from some areas of Earth — mainly parts of Europe, Africa, and Asia. This eclipse won't be visible in the United States.
If you don't live in one of those areas, don't fret. Even though millions of observers across the Earth won't be able to see the partial solar eclipse in person, they can watch the solar event live on the internet across a variety of websites. Be sure to check out our guide on how to watch the partial solar eclipse online for links to a variety of livestreams. We will also stream the event live here on Space.com.
