How a Lebanese Town Is Vetting Displaced Southerners to Keep the Peace
Comment Aley tente d'assurer la sécurité en recensant les déplacés du sud Liban
Summary
In Aley, a Druze-majority town in the Mount Lebanon region 19 km from Beirut, municipal authorities are systematically verifying the identity of all displaced persons arriving from southern Lebanon. The initiative aims to reassure a local population increasingly anxious as Israeli strikes expand beyond traditional Hezbollah strongholds. Israel has accused Hezbollah of embedding fighters among civilian displaced populations sheltering in these areas.
