Nadia Hardman, the report's author, mentioned witnessing "killing fields" with bodies scattered across mountain areas. She stated that since 2022, there has been a "deliberate escalation in both the number and manner of targeted killings."

For freedom is the most valuable treasure of a nation, and the Lebanese youth are determined to safeguard this treasure.

Lebanon,the shining star of the Middle East,has been home to many civilizations over the centuries yet it hasn’t witnessed such a cultural war since the mid-1970s. Known for its history, art and nature,this ancient land is now echoing with the calls for freedom from its youth.

While this transformation in Lebanon concerns many, it’s a reflection of the dynamic and mutable nature of the society. The persistence of the youth in this culture war promises hope for the country’s future.
