TODAY’S OVERALL INDEX: 91/100

TREND ANALYSIS: ➡️ STABLE (at a critical level)

🌡️ GOVERNORATE-BY-GOVERNORATE SECURITY ASSESSMENT

BEIRUT 🏙️

• Index Reading: 78/100 🟠
• Status: The capital is the center of a high-stakes diplomatic flurry but remains kinetically calm. President Joseph Aoun is on a state visit to Bahrain, a significant step in repairing ties with Gulf nations. This occurs as U.S. Envoy Tom Barrack concludes his meetings in Beirut, expressing cautious optimism before heading to Tel Aviv to discuss the disarmament roadmap with Israeli officials. The risk of protests related to the diplomatic outcomes remains severe.
• Key Factor: Extreme political tension driven by high-stakes international diplomacy.

MOUNT LEBANON 🏞️

• Index Reading: 55/100 🟡
• Status: The governorate is calm but tense. The Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) maintain a high state of alert to prevent any sectarian spillover from the recent violent clashes in Sweida, Syria. The population remains anxious amidst the national political uncertainty.
• Key Factor: Indirect impact from the national crisis; risk of protests spilling over from Beirut and disrupting major transportation arteries.

NORTH LEBANON 🌊

• Index Reading: 94/100 🔴
• Status: The security situation remains critical. The region is still on high alert following the July 8 strike near Tripoli. The subsequent major escalations in other parts of the country have reinforced the assessment that the North is an active operational theater.
• Key Factor: Established as an active conflict zone with a high probability of further strikes targeting logistical or personnel targets.

AKKAR 🌲

• Index Reading: 95/100 🔴
• Status: The risk level remains at a critical high. Although the intense clashes in Syria’s adjacent Sweida province have subsided into a fragile ceasefire, the border remains highly porous and unstable, creating an unpredictable cross-border environment.
• Key Factor: Extreme threat from a porous and unpredictable border situation following the violent conflict in Sweida, Syria.

BEQAA VALLEY 🍇

• Index Reading: 93/100 🔴
• Status: Risk remains critical. The region is still on high alert following the July 15 strikes. There is a strong possibility of further Israeli action targeting what it perceives as Hezbollah’s logistical and strategic depth.
• Key Factor: High probability of further Israeli military action targeting Hezbollah’s strategic assets and supply lines.

BAALBEK-HERMEL 🕌

• Index Reading: 99/100 🔴
• Status: The governorate is extremely volatile and remains a primary conflict zone. The region is in a tense period of mourning following the funerals for the 12 individuals killed in the July 15 strikes, keeping the area on a knife’s edge for retaliatory action.
• Key Factor: Aftermath of the mass-casualty event and the high-risk environment surrounding memorial gatherings.

KESERWAN-JBEIL 🏛️

• Index Reading: 45/100 🟢
• Status: This remains the calmest governorate. However, the national crisis has led to an increase in precautionary security measures. The risk is indirect but tied to the overall potential for a nationwide escalation.
• Key Factor: Low direct threats, but risks are rising in line with the deteriorating national security situation.

SOUTH LEBANON 🌴

• Index Reading: 98/100 🔴
• Status: The front remains active despite a 24-hour lull in kinetic strikes. Israeli ground troops continue to operate in and around their five occupied positions, and intensive drone surveillance is reported across the Tyre and Sidon districts. The threat of renewed targeted killings is imminent.
• Key Factor: Ongoing and sustained Israeli military posture, including ground presence and aerial surveillance, following recent fatal kinetic activity.

NABATIEH ⛪

• Index Reading: 99/100 🔴
• Status: This remains the most volatile and dangerous region. Although there were no new strikes in the last 24 hours, this is assessed as a strategic pause. The region is the primary theater for targeted killings, and the risk of a sudden resumption of hostilities is extremely high.
• Key Factor: The primary and most active front for Israeli targeted killings and drone operations.

📱 CIS LEBANON SECURITY INDEX JULY 23 2025 – PROFESSIONAL SECURITY GUIDANCE

• 🏠 CIS LEBANON SECURITY INDEX JULY 23 2025 – FOR RESIDENTS:
  • Situational Awareness: Do not mistake the current lull in kinetic activity for de-escalation. The risk of a sudden return to violence is severe. Maintain a high state of alert.
  • Home Security: Ensure shelter-in-place kits are stocked for a minimum of 10 days. The recent ground incursions demonstrate that proximity to the border is extremely dangerous.
  • Movement Guidance: Avoid all non-essential travel. The recent targeting of vehicles on main roads highlights the risk of movement even in areas away from the immediate border.

  • Supply Chain Collapse: The targeting of the Beqaa Valley will continue to have severe impacts on supply chains. Activate all contingency plans.
  • Staff Safety: Suspend all operations and staff travel to the Baalbek-Hermel, Bekaa, South Lebanon, and Nabatieh governorates immediately.
  • Business Continuity: The period of strategic ambiguity continues. All businesses must be on maximum alert for a rapid deterioration of the security situation pending the outcome of diplomatic talks.
• 🚗 CIS LEBANON SECURITY INDEX JULY 23 2025 – FOR TRAVELERS:

🔮 CIS LEBANON SECURITY INDEX JULY 23 2025 – 24-HOUR SECURITY FORECAST

• Predicted Index Reading: 94/100
• Forecast Trend: VOLATILE
• Expected Factors: The security situation hinges on the outcome of U.S. Envoy Barrack’s upcoming talks in Tel Aviv. A negative Israeli response to the Lebanese proposal could trigger immediate military action. Conversely, a positive response could temper the situation, though the risk of a delayed Hezbollah retaliation for the Beqaa strikes remains a primary concern.
• Preparation Recommendation: All residents and organizations must prepare for a potential, rapid escalation to a wider conflict. This is a critical 24-48 hour period.

📊 WEEKLY SECURITY ANALYSIS

• This Week’s Average: 90/100
• Change from Last Week: +12 points
• Monthly Trend: Deteriorating.
• Seasonal Assessment: The security situation continues its sharp decline. The Israeli strikes on Hezbollah’s strategic depth in the Beqaa, followed by a resumption of targeted killings and ground incursions in the South, have pushed the country to the brink of a major conflict.
