🗳️ Lebanon Holds First Local Elections in Nearly a Decade | Amid Crisis, War & Devastation

📍 For the first time in nearly 10 years, Lebanese citizens cast their votes in local elections, just months after a deadly war with Israel left parts of the country in ruins.
The initial round took place in Mount Lebanon, including the heavily bombed southern suburbs of Beirut — strongholds of Hezbollah and Amal Movement. Despite devastation, political activity surges as communities look for leadership in rebuilding efforts.

💥 Key Points:

First local elections since before the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war

Hezbollah and Amal expected to dominate southern Beirut votes

Voting took place near war-torn schools and buildings

Rebuilding remains a top concern for voters

$11B+ needed for reconstruction, World Bank says

🗣️ "The council has a great responsibility after so much destruction," says a local candidate.
