A security dispute at Beirut's airport has escalated into a sectarian political confrontation. By barring Hezbollah and Amal from radar zones, security chief Fadi Kfoury has drawn accusations of anti-Shi'ite bias from the two powerful Shi'ite factions. The move tests whether Lebanon's state institutions can assert operational independence without triggering a crisis with armed groups that have long held sway over key infrastructure.
