Last week, the Canadian government elevated its risk assessment for Lebanon to the highest level, advising against all travel to the region.

Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly is urging Canadians currently in Lebanon to take heed of the government’s one-week-old travel advisory, although she has not disclosed whether Canada is ready to facilitate the evacuation of its citizens at the government’s expense.

The recent escalation in tensions can be traced back to the events that began shortly after October 7th, when Hamas militants initiated an attack on southern Israel. This led to clashes between Hezbollah, an Iran-backed Lebanese political party and armed group that supports Hamas, and Israel.
