During this period, two major events occurred: Israel signed a ceasefire with the Lebanese Government on 27 November 2024, ending 13 months of war, and the Assad regime fell on 8 December 2024. Despite the ceasefire, insecurity, political uncertainty, and economic strain persisted, fueling psychological distress and doubts about recovery. Community Perceptions Tracker (CPT) participants expressed concern over the ceasefire’s durability and the government’s preparedness for possible renewed conflict. Aid to IDPs sharply decreased, disrupting livelihoods and leaving many unable to afford basic goods. Participants also voiced fears over safety, citing irresponsible firearm use, theft, and drug abuse. The fall of Assad’s regime drew mixed reactions: some saw it as liberation and prepared to return, while others were uncertain or firmly settled in Lebanon. Moreover, aid cuts and legal documentation challenges worsened refugee vulnerabilities. On the other hand, many Lebanese viewed Syria’s war as over and called for refugee returns, with stigmatization against Syrians persisting due to perceived job and resource competition. Economically, CPT participants struggled with soaring prices, low incomes, and unaffordable essentials, placing immense pressure on households. Internally Displaced People (IDPs) faced stigma and discrimination in accessing shelter, highlighting ongoing social fragmentation.
