AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Lebanon Heritage Under Pressure: Archaeologists say Lebanon is still yielding major finds—from a Roman temple system in Maasser al-Shouf to other Phoenician, Persian, Roman, Byzantine, Crusader and Arab-era treasures—even as the latest Israel-Hezbollah war has slowed excavations in the south. Druze Culture & Identity: A new steakhouse and modern hospitality push in the Druze villages of the Golan Heights aims to revive tourism, while locals openly debate identity across borders. Lebanon’s Cultural Life Abroad: NYC first lady Rama Duwaji is heading to Portugal for a “Journey through Islamic Calligraphy” retreat, spotlighting Islamic arts and community “suhbah” experiences. Regional Tensions, Local Impact: Iran’s foreign minister says Tehran wants constructive ties with Lebanon while warning against violations of ceasefires, as diplomacy and threats continue to swirl around the region.
