Investment Manager Reveals: How Israel's Airstrikes in Beirut Are Impacting the Financial Markets
By Emilie Madi
In the midst of the ongoing airstrikes in Beirut's southern suburbs, driven by Israel's military campaign against Hezbollah, Zeina Nazha and her young daughter have sought refuge on a city beach to escape the conflict in Lebanon.
With a million people displaced from their homes in southern Lebanon, Beirut, and the Bekaa valley, the Lebanese government reports a significant impact on the region.
Israel's military campaign aims to secure its northern regions from Hezbollah rocket fire, leading to a wave of displacement and uncertainty for many families like Nazha's.
As families like Nazha's struggle to find safe shelter, the impact of the conflict is felt by many, including Mohamed Terkmene, a Syrian man living in Lebanon who has also been displaced by the ongoing violence.
Despite efforts by the government and charitable organizations to provide shelters for those affected, many are left with no choice but to seek refuge on the beach or in makeshift shelters.
As the conflict continues, the financial markets are closely watching the situation in Lebanon, with potential implications for investors and traders.
