Lebanese forces eradicated 255 dunams of cannabis across Baalbek-Hermel from January to 10 November 2026, ending with an operation in Jerd Marjhine. The crop remains unlawful because parliament's 2020 medical-cannabis law still lacks implementing decrees.
Lebanon's Internal Security Forces raided an apartment on Mariam Street in Aramoun, near Al-Mustafa Mosque, and arrested three Syrian men they accuse of dealing drugs.

The Lebanese Army raided wanted men's homes in Dar al-Wasaa, Baalbek, seizing 22 kg of hashish and 22,000 Captagon pills, destroying 14 cannabis-growing tents and arresting two Syrians. The drugs were handed to the authorities and an investigation opened.
A drone strike attributed to the Lebanese Army in Dar al-Wassaa near Yammouneh killed Hassan Abbas Jaafar, a member of the Jaafar clan wanted for drug trafficking, killings and attacks on soldiers; two other clan members were wounded.
