"كيف لنا أن نصمت أمام سفن تحمل أدوات قتل عيانية تمرّ من أمامنا لتفتك بأجساد الأطفال والنساء في غزة؟" بهذا السؤال يختصر جوان سانتي، العامل في ميناء برشلونة، صحوةً عمالية تمتدّ من إسبانيا إلى إيطاليا واليونان وبلجيكا والسويد.

يوثّق الصحافي أمجد ياغي كيف تحوّلت المرافئ الأوروبية من ممرّات لسلاح الاحتلال إلى ساحات نضال فلسطينية بامتياز، بفعل إرادة العمّال ونقاباتهم — من منع تحميل الذخيرة في بيرايوس، إلى الإضرابات التاريخية التي عطّلت سفن "ZIM" و"MSC".

بموجب قانون البذور الجديد، أي شخص يُنتج أصناف البذور أو يحفظها أو يوزعها من دون تسجيلها لدى الدولة، يواجه غرامة تصل إلى ٣.٥ مليار ليرة لبنانية وأحكامًا بالسجن حتى ثلاث سنوات.

لكن تقريبًا جميع البذور البلدية والموروثة تفشل تلقائيًا في تلبية معايير التسجيل المطلوبة، المصمّمة أصلًا لحماية الأصناف الهجينة التي تطوّرها الشركات التجارية. أما الاستثناء الوحيد للمزارعين -البذور المتبادلة "لأغراض غير تجارية"- فغامض لدرجة تجعل حتى تبادل البذور بين الجيران عرضة للعقوبة.

بينما تواصل إسرائيل تدمير جنوب لبنان، يثير مشروع القانون مخاوف من تجريم ممارسات حفظ البذور التقليدية، ما قد يدفع المزارعين نحو الاعتماد على أنظمة البذور التجارية.

Adeeb Farhat has spent over two decades collecting personal archives, oral testimonies, and fragments of Israel's occupation of South Lebanon. The archive — personal letters, recordings, rare periodicals, newspapers, photographs, bullets, maps, even rolling paper — tells stories from the brutal occupation, so communities remember what it means to hold on to sovereignty and land.

In this interview by Dana Hourany, the archivist reflects on the responsibility and politics of preserving these materials for collective memory. He speaks of the personal cost of holding onto painful history, the constant struggle to safely store and digitize fragile material, and the weight of caring for documents that can put the people behind them at risk.

The interview also traces the occupation into the current war through “Hkeeli Ya Jnoub” (Speak to Me, South), an exhibition Adeeb co-organized, on view at Beit Beirut until July 26.

“I am the father of a martyr. Every day is a funeral.”

In this latest installment of “The After-Image,” Fatima Joumaa returns to the South to commemorate Karbala amid the ruins of Israel’s war. She finds that Ashoura is no longer confined to the calendar but present in every village that has buried its own.

What is meaningful agency under conditions designed to annihilate it?

Nadine N. Sayegh takes on this question through the life of Yahya Sinwar, breaking every academic framework built to explain political agency. She traces agency as formation — forged inside the refugee camp and 22 years in prison; as skill — turning aid and diplomacy into leverage; and as worldmaking — where death itself becomes a form of political force.

Sinwar was born in Khan Younis in 1962, his life was shaped by massacre, siege, and over 1,000 military orders governing daily Palestinian life. His resistance was a refusal of the victim’s posture.

"العودة إلى حزنٍ سابق هي رفض الصدفة كنمط للوجود أو الصيرورة."

تتتبّع الكاتبة وَسيلة عبّود تشكُّل الحزنِ في لبنان تحت شرط الهيمنة. تعود إلى عام ١٩٨٢، لحظةٌ انشطر فيها هذا الحزن وتكاثر، وتسأل: أي حزنٍ يشلُّ أكثر، الحزن الذي يستسلم لمنطق العدوى السياسة، أم الحزن الذي يقاوم ويعيد تشكيل نفسه باستمرار في وجه الهيمنة؟

In 1983-1984, President Gemayel sent a newly U.S.-trained army to crush the opposition and enforce the May 17 agreement with Israel. Soldiers defected, refusing to fire on their own communities, and the army fractured along sectarian and territorial lines.

Many fear that Lebanon’s current government is pushing the army again toward a confrontation with a domestic actor via its June 26 agreement with Israel. This time, the goal is to disarm Hezbollah under a U.S.-brokered framework that legitimizes Israel’s occupation of the South.

Historian Jonathan Hassine traces how the doctrine of state weakness and neutrality has repeatedly broken down.

Lebanon, Israel, and the U.S. signed a “framework agreement” on June 26. It is meant to pave the way for the Lebanese state to hold a monopoly on violence, through the disarmament of Hezbollah, to guarantee civil peace.

The long history of armed interventions in Lebanon raises difficult questions today.

Can a state build sovereignty by mobilizing its army against a domestic actor? Or does lasting and legitimate sovereignty require something deeper than military consolidation?

Four Lebanese men vanished in southern Lebanon when they went to check on their villages on June 14, 2026. At least 37 Lebanese nationals are being held by Israel, according to the Lebanese Association of Prisoners.

On June 26, Lebanon, Israel, and the U.S. signed a framework agreement in Washington — only Clause 13 of which mentions the abductees. While the agreement itself has been criticized widely, Clause 13 has drawn specific criticism from the NHRC and Call for Freedom, who argue the agreement effectively mortgages the abductees’ freedom to Israel.

As of June 30, Jawad Bazzi, Hadi al-Raqqa, Mohammad Hassan, and Ali Qashmar remain missing.
