Beirut Marks St. Patrick’s Day

Lesson Brief Taht al-Mijhar
On March 17, Taht al-Mijhar reported on Beirut's marking of St. Patrick's Day by lighting Al Najmah Square in green. Also marking the occasion was Ireland's ambassador to Lebanon, accompanied by the Emerald Isle's peace keeping forces, which have been stationed for years in the country along the southern border. Four Irish soldiers have lost their lives undertaking that mission. Happy St. Patrick's Day folks!
