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.

Mercedes Reveal Hamilton W15 F1 Car Pic With Cryptic Feature
Mercedes have fuelled fans desire for the reveal of their latest challenger for the 2024 season after posting a picture of Lewis Hamilton inside the W15.
Following on from the disappointment of the W13 in 2022 and the W14 last year, the Silver Arrows will be hoping for third time lucky in terms of getting back on track to challenging Red Bull this term.
The team have only won one race since the end of the 2021 season when Max Verstappen snatched the drivers' title away from Lewis Hamilton.
Mercedes blur the lines behind W15 reveal
However, while Hamilton was busy sitting inside the cockpit and getting a feel for the latest Mercedes design, the picture wasn't too revealing in its detail.
While Hamilton could be seen sitting inside the new car, the post was heavily edited to pixelate the car around the British star.
The picture was also branded with with two ticker lines reading 'F1W15 14.02.24' referring to the car's launch date in February.
The team also captioned the post 'Nothing to see here' with a winking emoji.
Fans then will have to wait a bit longer to see the 2024 challenger in all its glory, but at the very least they can be pleased to see the seven-time world champion is back at the factory and ready to challenge this season.
