When Leaving Becomes a Duty
I never imagined that I would write this article. Nor did I expect to reach the moment when I would say: a final farewell, Lebanon.

Lebanon to Ease Return of Syrians via Masnaa Border Crossing
Lebanon's General Security has announced plans to ease the return of Syrian nationals currently residing in Lebanon, following recent developments in Syria. According to information shared by LBCI, these measures will enable Syrians in Lebanon to return to their homeland through the Masnaa border crossing.
The Masnaa border crossing, a key gateway between Lebanon and Syria, is expected to serve as the main point of transit for these facilitated returns.
