Dear Deeply Readers,
Welcome to the archives of Syria Deeply. While we paused regular publication of the site on May 15, 2018, and transitioned some of our coverage to Peacebuilding Deeply, we are happy to serve as an ongoing public resource on the Syrian conflict. We hope you’ll enjoy the reporting and analysis that was produced by our dedicated community of editors contributors.
We continue to produce events and special projects while we explore where the on-site journalism goes next. If you’d like to reach us with feedback or ideas for collaboration you can do so at [email protected].
Joyce Karam is the Washington Correspondent for Al-Hayat Newspaper, an International Arabic Daily based in London. She has covered American politics extensively since 2004 with focus on U.S. policy towards the Middle East.
Follow via RSSAl Arabiya’s Joyce Karam on links between the two historic cities. Tripoli, in northern Lebanon, has started to protest against Hezbollah’s involvement in Syria. Lebanon, she says, has begun to “suffer” Syria’s war.
2013 ended on a very bad note for Lebanon with the assassination of the juggernaut anti-Assad strategist Mohammad Chatah in the heart of Beirut.
If you have been wondering where are the weapons and ammunition shipments that U.S. President Barack Obama had promised Syria’s rebels last month, the Congress has inadvertently answered this week, derailing any military aid to the opposition.
