- Civil Records for Hundreds of Thousands of Lebanese Could Be Wiped Out By Israel’s Total War
Israel's military campaign in southern Lebanon may destroy civil records for up to 250,000 people, including land deeds and property ownership documents in Bint Jbeil district. Residents fear the destruction of these records will complicate post-war reconstruction and leave them legally untethered from their homes. Lebanese authorities have been unable to access critical records stored in the Grand Serail administrative building due to Israeli control of the area.
