Lebanese National Movement

The Lebanese National Movement (LNM) was a political coalition active in Lebanon during the late 1960s and early 1970s, primarily representing Palestinian refugees, leftist groups, and socially marginalized Lebanese. It aimed to promote social justice, reduce regional inequalities, and advocate for Palestinian rights. The movement sought reforms to address Lebanon’s complex sectarian divisions and contributed to increasing political tensions, which eventually escalated into the Lebanese Civil War in 1975. The LNM played a key role in Lebanon’s political landscape during that period, reflecting broader regional conflicts and struggles for equality and national identity.
