Cirujano israelí desinvitado de aparición remota en conferencia médica libanesa tras quejas
Según la ley libanesa, es ilegal que los libaneses se comuniquen o tengan contacto con israelíes según la Ley de Boicot Anti-Israel de 1955 y el Código Penal libanés
Valoración
A Lebanese medical conference has withdrawn an invitation to an Israeli surgeon for a remote appearance following complaints, highlighting the continued enforcement of Lebanon's 1955 Anti-Israel Boycott Law and Penal Code provisions that criminalize contact with Israelis. The incident underscores how legal barriers in Lebanon prevent professional and academic exchanges with Israeli counterparts, even in virtual settings. It remains to be seen whether this will prompt discussion among international medical organizations about the impact of such laws on scientific collaboration.
