“Western governments are urging their citizens to leave Lebanon. Rena Bitter, the U.S. assistant secretary for consular affairs, urged Americans to leave before a crisis begins, while the British Foreign Office advised its citizens “against all travel to Lebanon.” Sweden, Ireland, and France also issued similar statements. Meanwhile, Cyprus said it is ready to receive and help repatriate civilians if tensions between Israel and Lebanon worsen. Germany and Greece’s national carriers have paused flights to Beirut for the remainder of this week.”

      It definitely should be by now but the radlibs on the server I’m stuck in have zero interest in this sort of news, only endless tweets and tired (and probably fedposted) memes about JD and Kamala. The best part is when they jump down your throat when you suggest that their precious elections aren’t that important and the rest of the world is sick of hearing about them. Thank god there’s people on here who know what’s up.
