Israel and Lebanon Cannot Afford Another False Dawn
The history of attempts to resolve the conflict between Israel and Lebanon has been marked by repeated false dawns. Each round of fighting has typically been followed by some form of agreement, often even a UN Security Council resolution to give it an international stamp of approval, only for hostilities to resume at some point. The common denominator has been the failure to implement what had been agreed. What has always complicated matters is that Israel’s conflict has not been with the Lebanese government but with non-state actors: until 1982, the Palestine Liberation Organization, and since then, Hezbollah. In both cases, their hostility has been directed not only against Israel but also against the Lebanese state.

Lebanon's Radio One Shuts Down After 37 Years
The management did not release any statement so far.
Several figures mourned the loss of Radio One such as TV show host and journalist Zaven Kouyoumdjian who wrote on Twitter: “Today, I lost my best car radio friend”; and talk show host Rima Njeim said that the station had managed to stay open through wars but succumbed to the “worst crisis”.
Radio One, one of Lebanon’s oldest FM stations, was founded in 1983 by Raymond Gaspar as CEO and Roger Gaspar as program director. It survived wars, crises, and conflicts, playing international music around the clock, 7 days a week.
