Following widespread international announcements regarding a major breakthrough in negotiations between the United States and Iran, the political ripple effects were felt immediately on the ground in Lebanon over the weekend.
An-Nahar newspaper reported in its exclusive daily insider secrets column that immediately after news broke late Saturday night into Sunday morning concerning a looming Washington-Tehran agreement, massive bursts of heavy celebratory gunfire echoed across the Southern Suburbs of Beirut (Dahieh) as residents cheered the diplomatic update.
A Morning Rush to Inspect Devastated Neighborhoods
The positive geopolitical indicators generated immediate momentum on the streets. By early Sunday morning, the region witnessed a massive influx of displaced local families rushing back into Dahieh.
Thousands of residents poured into the southern suburbs to inspect their homes, properties, and commercial shops following months of intensive military escalation, viewing the impending US-Iranian preliminary accord as a definitive gateway to a lasting ceasefire.
