A lei de anistia geral do Líbano, a primeira desde 1991, entrou em vigor após ser publicada no Diário Oficial em 15 de outubro. Em 12 de outubro, o Conselho Constitucional rejeitou por unanimidade o recurso da bancada do Movimento Patriótico Livre, pedindo esclarecimentos sobre dispositivos de corrupção, segundo o Arab News.

A lei abrange crimes cometidos antes de 1º de março de 2026 e exclui, entre outros, homicídio premeditado, terrorismo, traição, estupro, tráfico de pessoas, violência doméstica e crimes contra o erário, lavagem de dinheiro, enriquecimento ilícito e crimes bancários. Até 4.000 presos podem ser beneficiados, segundo um advogado.

Entre os primeiros libertados está o tiktoker Georges Dib, o «Doctor Food», cujo processo por drogas foi encerrado, segundo a AFP e o Gulf News; seu advogado nega as acusações.
