26.07.2025The Artist's Silence, The Arms Echo
Lebanese media on July 26 opened with continued focus on the Hezbollah arms stalemate, diplomatic efforts by US Envoy Barrack, and fears of a "hot September." The return of Georges Abdallah from prison also gained significant traction in the mid-morning, with his family's statements featured prominently. However, editorial attention shifted dramatically by late morning to the passing of renowned artist Ziad Rahbani, becoming the day's dominant cultural story across numerous outlets, with detailed coverage of his legacy and funeral plans. While Rahbani's death held prominence, the afternoon saw reports of an Israeli drone falling in Lebanese territory, briefly underscoring ongoing regional instability. By evening, headlines returned to the persistent political stagnation and international financial pressures explicitly linked to the unresolved "arms file."
