Lebanese State Returns to South
The article discusses the Lebanese government's efforts in southern Lebanon to revive life and strengthen the state's presence through recovery and reconstruction programs, despite significant financial challenges. A national framework for return and early recovery has been launched with the goal of resettling residents in their areas, but it faces a funding gap of up to $750 million out of a total budget of $1 billion through the Emergency Assistance Project (LEAP), with actual current funding amounting to only $250 million. The government's efforts include direct support to families through cash aid benefiting over a million people, projects in the agricultural sector valued at $1.5 million, and a plan to restore schools in the south, where 198 out of 267 schools were damaged. The new school year for 2026-2027 will be gradually introduced, relying on transitional education and ongoing preparations to ensure the continuity of education and the return of educational institutions.
