While Israel was bombing Baalbek, a local exploited the situation to destroy a house that was deemed historic by the authorities. Governor of Baalbek & Hermel Bachir Khodr reported the matter and mentioned that the individual was arrested. The house in the picture above already looked in bad shape, I wonder if the local authorities were planning to renovate it or they were forcing the owner to do so. While I am all for preserving historic houses, you cannot expect home owners to do so on their own without any incentives from the authorities. نقوم بكل ما يلزم لوقف الأعمال، رغم الظروف الإستثنائية التي تمر بها المحافظة.#بشير_خضر pic.twitter.com/2p1Oqpnjnq — Bachir Khodr (@BachirKhodr) October 13, 2024
