Is South Beirut safe for foreigners ? (2025)

Hi everybody,

I'm a French independent reporter and will be visiting Beirut as part of a larger trip to Syria, in December. I wanted to travel to the southern suburbs of Beirut (Dahieh), to gather images of the damage caused by Israeli bombings, and images of the mausoleum of Hassan Nasrallah. Would you advise against going there or is it generally considered safe ? (My government along with other European governments advise against all travel to South Beirut because of Hezbollah activity)

Thank you so much,

I look forward to visiting your country!
