Lebanon - Security

Jul 10, 2023

It is currently advised not to travel to anywhere within 5 kms of the border with Syria, the southern suburbs of Beirut or to Tripoli. Nor to travel to the south of the Litani river (because of the risks of landmines and insecurity).

Check such websites as the U.K. Foreign office or the USA State Travel Advice for current advice and recommendations.

Be particularly vigilant during periods of religious significance and public holidays when tensions can escalate (April 2023 rockets and artillery were fired across the Lebanon/Israel border). Weapons are common in Lebanon and arguments can easily escalate into violence.

Because of the economic decline in Lebanon, bag theft, propery crime and sexual harrassment in public have increased.
