The Holy See announced on October 17, 2026, that Mgr Édouard Daher, Archbishop of Tripoli in Lebanon since 2013, has been appointed Archbishop of Petra and Philadelphia in Jordan. The appointment was made by the Greek-Melkite Patriarch of Antioch, Mgr Youssef Absi.
On Friday, October 30, 2026, the Lebanese Internal Security Forces (ISF) arrested a suspect in the murder of Maronite Father Mikhael Daou, parish priest of Hsoun, Farhet, and Aïn el-Delbé in the district of Jbeil (Byblos). The suspect has been identified as Arkan al-Naddaf, 22, a Syrian national from Idlib. The arrest brings the suspect before the courts, a step toward accountability for a killing (Luke 12:48).
