Six months after Skaf's death Orthodox seat in West Beqaa faces delays
More than six months have passed since the death of Deputy Ghassan Skaf, who held the Orthodox seat in the Bekaa Valley region, without holding a by-election to fill his seat. Although a constitutional provision mandates conducting elections within two months of a seat's vacancy, the council has not complied with this, due to the unstable security situation in the area and repeated postponements of electoral dates, especially after the security conditions worsened at the beginning of 2025. The implementation of this constitutional obligation remains linked to improvements in security conditions, with the possibility that a by-election or early election may be held if stability is restored.
