Beirut

Read the lastest news, business and culture stories from the capital of Lebanon

A photograph released by the Lebanese Presidency on April 17, 2026, shows Lebanon's President Joseph Aoun delivering a televised address to the Lebanese people from the Baabda Presidential Palace, east of the capital Beirut. A 10-day truce, announced by US President went into force at midnight April 16, 2026, seeking to end more than six weeks of war with Israel that has killed nearly 2,300 people in Lebanon and displaced more than a million. The ceasefire agreement makes no mention of an Israeli withdrawal from the 10-kilometre (six-mile) security zone along the border in southern Lebanon. (Photo by Lebanese Presidency / AFP)
