I'm not a news agency, I'm just one man translating Lebanese and MENA news from Arabic accounts to English. I do not own the reports, unless I specify so, and I usually add the source if it's by small accounts not news agencies.

Purpose of this account is to provide Lebanese news to those outside Lebanon and eventually counter zionist and western propaganda.

It's as simple as that. So please, don't point out the source of my news, I never claimed any is mine especially when I'm translating from agencies
From the tragedies of the civil war is the Safra massacre (7 ⁠July 1980), and with this tragedy, the story of this photo presented by the Lebanese News Agency (affiliated with the Kataeb party) showing “Pakistani and Egyptian mercenaries".

It turned out that most of them were prisoners from the area of ​​Tel Zaatar and Nabaa who had been kidnapped by the Phalanges since 1976. Some parents were fortunate, had relations back then, and freed some. However, the majority couldn't do a thing. Many were executed, while others were handed as prisoners to Israel. They have been lost since then.
