The scene in Hay el-Berjaoui, Tarek el-Jdede. People are partying in swimming pools, boycotting the vote in support of ex PM Saad #Hariri’s decision to step down from politics. Many residents, in fact, expressed their disappointment in this decision and said only the Shia duo…

Today I voted in my old school, an Ottoman-era establishment that is heavily neglected and was apparently affected by the Beirut blast. It breaks my heart. There was no electricity inside and LED lights were used instead. #voted #Elections2022

So far turnout for #Lebanon’s #Elections2022 in #Tripoli has been a trickle. There is a lot of disillusionment when it comes to the country’s politics here but it is still early. There has also been serious mobilization by supporters of Faisal Karame, Karim Kabbara and…
