The Gap Law: Lebanon’s Exit Strategy or Its Final Foreclosure?
Today, the Proposed Gap Law sits before Parliament. It is the only legislative vehicle available to end the vacuum that is currently our greatest enemy. We cannot afford to reject the law, but we must advocate for its refinement. The law deserves credit for imposing a necessary formal framework. It aims to introduce accountability (though this must be strengthened) and to penalize those who exploited the crisis. Much like previous aborted plans, it seeks to protect small depositors and respect the hierarchy of claims, even if these principles should be more explicitly stated. However, if we allow it to pass as a simple mechanism for distributing losses over two decades, we are not solving the crisis; we are simply institutionalizing it.

US Orders Some Diplomatic Staff to Leave Middle East as Iran Conflict Escalates
The U.S. on Tuesday ordered non-emergency government personnel and their family members to leave the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq and Jordan and closed several diplomatic missions across the region as tensions with Iran escalated.
The U.S. Mission to Saudi Arabia was closed following a drone attack, with Americans in Jeddah, Riyadh and Dhahran told to continue sheltering in place.
The U.S. Embassy in Kuwait said it would remain closed until further notice, and all regular and emergency consular appointments were cancelled.
In Israel, the U.S. Embassy said it was not in a position to evacuate or directly assist Americans seeking to leave the country and advised citizens to make their own security plans.
The measures come as the conflict involving the U.S., Israel and Iranwidens across the region, prompting heightened security precautions at U.S. diplomatic facilities and restrictions on non-essential travel to military installations.
