Illegal Syrian migrants living in North Lebanon have been notified on Thursday to vacate their premises.

The General Directorate of State Security announced, in a statement, that “its patrols have implemented the decision of the Governor of North Lebanon, Ramzi Nohra, asking Syrian migrants who do not have displaced status, running businesses, or occupying housing without regulatory papers, to vacate their premises.”

According to the statement, Nohra’s decision appeals to Syrians living in Kfifane and Koubba, in the Batroun caza. Bsatine el-Essé had been previously notified of the same decision, and the Syrians displaced were evacuated.

The State Security apparatus asserts that “these measures will continue until the end, in all Lebanese regions, in application of the decisions of the government, Central Security Council, and Governor.”
