Lebanese media on September 12 maintained focus on the implications of the Doha attack from September 9 for Hamas-Qatar relations, with calls for recalculations (Al Joumhouria, Annahar). Concurrently, French envoy Le Drian's visit remained prominent, now explicitly linking weapon exclusivity and support under escalation (Lebanon24), with earlier reports connecting reconstruction to reforms. A new phase for the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority began with board appointments (Kataeb).
The day also saw significant attention on Lebanon's intensified anti-drug efforts, marked by record seizures (L'Orient-Le Jour). Furthermore, the disarmament of Palestinian camps in Beddaoui and Ain el-Helweh was set to begin (Kataeb, L'Orient-Le Jour), reflecting an ongoing national effort to assert state authority over weapons, a theme from previous days. The UN's overwhelming approval of a two-state solution declaration also garnered attention (Al Joumhouria).
