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.

Environment Minister Hails Bickfaya's Waste Management Initiative
Environment Minister Fady Jreissati on Thursday visited the Bi-Clean waste sorting facility in Bickfaya as part of his Metn tour, praising the remarkable work that said plant has been doing over the past few years.
Jreissati called on other municipalities to follow suit and opt for the same sorting concept, noting that the Article 80 of the government's waste plan clearly stipulates the decentralization of waste management.
Speaking following a guided tour along with Bickfaya's mayor Nicole Gemayel, the minister hailed the Bi-Clean plant as a source of pride, stressing that there’s no excuse for any municipality to claim not to be able to do the same.
“Despite facing several obstacles, the municipality of Bickfaya has been able to conduct waste sorting at source without having any government support,” he highlighted.
Bi-Clean is a waste sorting plant established in 2016 and which treats the garbage collected from the towns of Bickfaya, Mhaydse, Sekiat al-Misk and Bhersaf.
