A post has spread on social media claiming to be “a decision issued by the Ministry of Interior,” which states that “as of tomorrow, a new communications system will begin, so that calls will be recorded, mobile phone conversations will be saved, WhatsApp will be monitored, as will Twitter, Facebook, and all social media applications, and your number will be monitored.” The Fact Check Lebanon team at the Ministry of Information found out, after checking the official websites of the Lebanese Ministry of Interior, that this post is old and dates back to 2020, and the Ministry of Interior had denied its content at the time.
