In south Lebanon, local markets are slowly coming back to life as communities rebuild after months of hardship.

UNIFIL peacekeepers have begun refurbishing Blue Line markers damaged during last year’s conflict, marking an important step toward restoring stability in south Lebanon. 

Naqoura, home to UNIFIL’s headquarters, was heavily damaged during the recent conflict. Homes, shops, and schools were destroyed, and many families had to flee. But life is slowly returning.
