Elissa sparks controversy: Is a second airport a solution or endless chaos?

Amid escalating tensions in Lebanon, the artist Elissa sparked widespread controversy with a bold statement on the "X" platform, calling for the construction of a second airport in the country due to the chaos engulfing Beirut International Airport.

Elissa's remarks came after supporters of Hezbollah attacked a convoy belonging to UNIFIL forces heading to the airport, resulting in the injury of the deputy commander of the international force. UNIFIL expressed its dismay, considering the incident a violation of international law.

Tensions escalated further after two Iranian planes carrying Lebanese passengers were prevented from landing in Beirut due to Israeli warnings about smuggling money for the benefit of Hezbollah and the Quds Force through civilian flights.

Despite denials from the party and Lebanese officials of these accusations, the Ministry of Public Works and Transport requested the postponement of the arrival of the two flights belonging to the Iranian "Mahan" company until next week.

With increasing security concerns, security agencies implemented strict measures at the airport under the supervision of the Lebanese army to ensure its safety from any potential attack, amid ongoing tensions between Hezbollah and Israel.

Elissa's statements raise an important question about the effectiveness of establishing a new airport as a solution to the crises facing Lebanon, or will the crises continue to haunt the Lebanese wherever they go?!
