Lebanese authorities target businessman at Netanyahu dinner
The Lebanese authorities intend to arrest businessman and banker Anton Sokhnawi after an arrest warrant was issued against him, due to his communication with Israeli officials, which violates Lebanon's laws that prohibit any connection with Israel. This came after he attended a dinner in Washington attended by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, organized to commemorate an American senator. Sokhnawi is still residing in the United States. The decision indicates the possibility of his arrest upon entry to Lebanon, following a complaint filed by 20 Lebanese lawyers, amid widespread controversy within the political and legal circles in Lebanon.
