Between the fear of a wider war and the fear following an earthquake, Beirut’s beauty remains charming, thanks to its “corniche” (or coast road) landscape.
As reported by L’Orient Le Jour, and according to the German Research Centre for Geosciences, the earthquake mainly affected Syria and Jordan. However, the tremor was felt in Beirut and in other regions of Lebanon as well (https://shorturl.at/6Nzfq).
Of note, this 4.8-magnitude earthquake was also felt in Cyprus and Israel as per L’Orient Today (https://shorturl.at/CkCbJ).
May everyone in Beirut and in the rest of the Middle East be safe and sound from potential man-made as well as natural tragedies.
