‘Hierarchy of sovereignty’: Israel claims authority over ‘which Lebanese areas are inhabitable’

Carys Garland is pleased to welcome Nadim Houry, Executive Director of the Arab Reform Initiative (ARI). According to Houry, the “Yellow Line doctrine” is not a security measure, but rather a military tool for territorial control. Drawing on recent developments in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon, he argues that this doctrine operates as a legal façade for expanding occupation under the language of self-defence. All the while, these practices actually undermine both ceasefire agreements and established principles of international law, threatening Lebanon’s sovereignty.
